Default comp 918 springs but what retainers?

About to order Comp 918 springs, just want to know from other personal experience what are the best retainers to use? And do they come with locks or did you order them by themselves?
5.3 stock bottom end, cam, ls1 intake, stock head besides the springs & retainers.

I believe the stock retainers will fit.
How aggressive is the cam?
