Default Titanium Retainer Failures
I have heard that some of you guys have had Ti retainers fail on you. If so please share you experience and what you were running i.e. which retainers, springs, cams, valve lash, rpm, N/A, FI, Lighten flywheel etc.

Conversely if you guys haven't had a failure also reply.

Thanks. I am trying to see if it is worthwhile to have chrome-moly retainers made for Honda valvetrains.
