I agree 100%.

With the lightweight tool steel retainers BTR has in his spring kits and his even lighter Ti retainers, trying to save weight with a beehive and skimping out on crucial spring pressure for an aftermarket cam just doesn't make sense.

Especially when you can get those spring kits at the prices they are going for.
