vortec spring question

well on my build for now i went ahead and bought a 95 lt1 cam for my vortec build up, since the original cam is around the same size as the lt1 cam i just installed, can i resuse the stock valve springs now?

Stock cam specs were .414/428 lift and .191/.196 duration

95 lt1 cam specs are 205/207 duration and .447/.459 lift.

Nope, not unless you want to limit your rpm to about 5000.
I'd get this kit: http://www.alexsparts.com/valve-spri...rf-hyd-roller/
