Need spring recommendations for this cam

I was recommended a 222/222 .597”/.597” 110LSA +0 cam from Patrick G for my setup. He recommended PAC 1518 beehives or TEA Gold Duals springs. I was just wondering if there are any other equivalent springs from different manufactures that would work with this cam. It’s a stock LS1 engine with stock heads. Thanks.

Pac 1518's will do you more then good. I'm running them on my EPS 226/230 cam. Great springs.

I'm running Patriot gold on a 222/222 NZ Cam, but listen to Patrick, he's the cam guru here. You really didn't even need to start this thread.
