Default Are dart retainers titanium?
Can anyone say for sure weather or not the Dart pro 1 ls1 assembled heads come with titanium retainers? Some places say they are, but some (such as Summit) say they are steel. I can't find this info on Dart's web page. Anyone had some apart and know for sure?

Summit's page is incorrect. Darts LS1's have always been titanium as far as I know. Mine were built a year ago, 225's, and the retainers are Ti.

I saw that as well and contacted Dart, who told me their heads still ship with the Ti retainers.
