Default BuddyClub III+ cams - Need vavle springs?

Just picked up a set of BC3 cams for my B16. Do I need to run upgraded valve springs with them or stock is ok? How high can I safely rev with stock springs? Any recommendations on which springs I should buy?

I figured they were mild cams, but ok.

Any recommendations on springs - good price?
