What springs are on the heads you're getting? If they'll handle the cam then no need to worry. I like Comp's new Beehives myself

I ordered my AFRs with the upgraded springs but I've heard the new heads have better stock springs, I'd contact AFR.

I bought my AFR 165's with the upgraded springs already installed.
I used Harland Sharp 1.6 roller rockers and Crane pushrods and Summit lifters.
