Default New Bisi lvl 2 cam, springs needed?

I recently purchased the level 2 cam regrind for my car. Now on the website it says their cam gear and pro springs are highly recomended for my cam.. i am going to buy the new cam gear, but do you think i should really buy the pro springs? my car has only 91,xxx miles on it so it really isnt old as far as hondas go. Im jsut wondering if you guys know the new springs are a must with this cam or just a wise investment after the $230 cam regrind

From what I have seen they look a lot like Honda yellows. From what I've been able to research the intake springs of the 90-93 F22A1 are yellow's.

$6.77 x 16 = $108.32 from Honda Parts online.com

Anyone have any other opinions on these? Or care to share the specs between the Accord Yellow's and the Pro Springs?

when you buy cams the lift and duration is different, obviously. you buy adjustable cam gears so you can degree the engine. so you can actually get them to open and close the valve properly, which a lot of people dont do.

as for that cam, its a pretty big cam. f22 valve springs arnt strong, if youre going to build, build it right buy the pro springs too.
