beehive tpi

Hello. Can you guys tell me what is req'd to put beehive springs on my L98? It has the stock 87 heads on it with stock cam 100k miles. I'm looking to put fresh valvesprings on the motor to wake it up a little. Should I bother spending $ for beehives orjust put standard springs on it? Thanks Chris

If you are not changing the cam or rockers there is no real reason to upgrade the springs.
