236/242 114LSA 580-590 Cam(7.45 pushrods)

I am LS swapping my 95 Caprice. I have a L92(stock bottom end), gonna throw this cam in & was wondering which valve springs would be best. Also have a 2600 stall converter, and 3.73 gears. Any guesses on hp?

Yes.
You will make slightly less hp than stock so the car should pull harder.

Makes no sense..... Was there a 454 in the 95 Caprice? I thought they were LT1s 260hp. Should do significantly better. I would personally select a more torque oriented cam to move the heavy car.
