Default D16Y8 camshaft

I am looking into buying an aftermarket camshaft for my Y8 (mini me on a sohc zc). I have searched and see that the Zex stage 2 cam and Comp cam 59300 are popular and have good reviews. Also, they are in my price range of ~$300.

Just wondering if:
a) Do they have them for a Y8
b) Does someone have any good sites that sell them?
c) Can I use these stage 2 cams on a stock setup? I don't have the money for new springs and retainers ATM.

I beleive the cam will kill the springs and fast. You can use your cam gear on your stock cam, but don't expect a huge increase, since the cam is tuned for moderate power.
