Advice Needed
Hello all, a little background info, 2000 SS M6, TSP LT's, Dumped Duals, soon to have P1SC1 with a low boost pulley. I recently ordered some PSI 1511 springs so I can increase hopefully rev a bit higher without having any issues. I was wondering if titanium retainers would benefit me in any significant way for my setup or would it be negligible. Is it possible to have too light of a valvetrain? If I dont need titanium retainers I was going to just use my stock ones. Thank you for the input.

Titanium tends to wear faster than steel too. In a beehive spring, the retainers are already very small so a titanium retainer will only save a few grams. Most people will say it's not worth the $225 (Comp brand) because it's such a miniscule savings.

Thank you for the information. I didn't even consider how a beehive spring retainer would be smaller than a standard retainer. Looks like I will be reusing my stock retainers and putting the money to other parts.
