Springs to use with CC306

I originally bought some comp 986's, but they won't fit my stock heads without some grinding, which I'd rather not have done. What springs should I use that will fit my stock heads and be able to work with my cam?

I'm using the Crane 10308 kit..
But you can use Comp Beehives as well. Do a search for both and you'll come up with alot..

I forget, what's the lift of the 306 with 1.6 rockers? RyanD, if you can use the beehives with that cam, which I believe you can, do it. I had some 987s with my small cam and they weren't enough spring for the job. The 918s solved the valve float problem. Gained another 400 rpm.
