Why would the 114 LSA not work well with a carb? The factory cam is even wider ie larger LSA number. There are also plenty of cams that are tighter. Matter of fact, most people putting cams in LSx engines go 112 or tighter. The 114 cams are typically left for people with automatic transmissions who don't want a loose converter for street driving or simply to have a more mild idle while sitting in gear.
Patriot gold springs are good springs. In my opinion though, you don't need a double spring with that cam. I'd look towards Comp Cams Beehive springs. Either choice will be fine though. Definitely get a one piece pushrod set for the engine too.
