Default Suspension for a CRX with a b16. What springs?

Hey guys I am going to swap in a b16 into my crx. I need suspension as it is and i think the added weight of the engine is going to kill me on what i have now. (stock springs and kyb gr-2).

I am going to be buying koni yellows but what springs should i get?
Is it necesary to get some custom stuff (like gc's) or will a regular spring like eibach or H&R or tein be ok?
Do they make something specifically for a crx with b series?

Thanks

b16 weighs about 10 lbs more than the d series in there. someone correct me if i'm wrong.

but to answer your question, you can get the springs made for your car. the rates will be fine.
