Since titanium retainers are twice the price of steel retainers, the question is, are they reallay worth the extra cost ? I understand that they are stronger than steel as well as lighter. Considering I am running a hydraulic cam in a 455 powered Firebird w nitrous at high 10s. Would only the benefit of a lighter retainer justify the extra cost over a heavier steel retainer? I have chrome moly pushrods and aluminum roller rockers. Opinions ?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
