The head set up and springs are very specific for each cam. The manufacturer requires the installed height, seat psi too. It all needs to be measured and set by a machinist.
Another thought ... new springs on a worn cam?

the previous owner did install all new valvesprings, how would new springs on an old cam cause them to break?
