Default Valve spring recomendations

I need a new set of valve springs for 99 z with 80k. Can hear the valves clatter at high rpms even with premium, so I guess they are wore out. Anyone have any recomendations for a stock heads/cam car. I eventually will get a small cam, so I want something a little better than stock. Want to spend about 150$.
Thanks

ZO6 springs, that way you use the stock locks and retainers

i was going to say z06 springs or comp 918's the 918's will give you plenty of life and allow you to put a decent size cam in and not worry about them.

918's without a doubt. Don't waste time and money on the Z06's
