Help with TPIS ZZ-X cam

I've been looking aroung at different places for a set of springs for the ZZ-X cam. What springs do you guys recommend and maybe also lifters? Any help would be appreciated.

Why don't you just go to the TPIS website and find out what springs they recommend for that cam? O and lube up your _ _ _ cause nothing they sell is cheap!

Tell me about it, but I did go to their website and checked out the springs and their not to bad. Not compared to some other stuff like the CAMS! Anyways, they are closed until Tuesday so I was hoping for answer today. If I don't go with TPIS springs then what aftermarket ones would be good?

Was that on the online catalog because I did not find that part # or is it on the catalog they send you?
