It really depends on the cam... If its an agressive lobe, check the spring pressures at 15K and every 5K after that. If its a mellow lobe maybe check at 25K and every 5K afterwards. Too many variables will affect spring life, so just check one or two to be sure.
However you might want to verify that you did not get a set from the bad batch from last year that seem to be breaking all over the place.
