Default Where to buy retainers and locks

Long story short I have an issue with my current retainers and locks. I want to find something stronger like titanium retainers and locks even 10deg for the stock "Size" beehive so... does anyone know where I can find some? I searched summit and didn't find much. there is some on e-bay but they look to be a no name

Have You tried "Alex's Parts" ? They deal mostly in valve train items and have very reasonable pricing .

Comp 762 and and 788 are titanium 7 degree retainers for their beehive springs.

Manley has them as well. I believe they may have +.050 in titanium as well.
