valvespring recomendation

I need a recomendation for the e1090 camshaft. the generic ".600" lift" springs have the opened and closed poundages but I am reluctant to use those on a 7000RPM engine, anyone have experience with this cam? I know its used a lot in budget racing.

For a Few Dollars More

For a Few Dollars More the 98213 are pretty tuff and have used many sets. Some have been running over .500 for 10+yrs in both solid and hyd. My $0.02 anyway
