24v valvetrain issues. Anybody had this problem?

INLINE INSANITY
I bought a set of titanium springs, chromoly retainers with 10* locks and chromoly 10mm pushrods. The first problem is when I bolted the rocker arms down, the exhaust rocker hits the intake valve retainer that is right underneath it when the valve is in the closed position. The second one is that the bridges dont fit in the hole of the retainer and make contact. I am in negotiations right now on a getting my money back. I was just wondering if anybody else has seen this or if not what setup are you running and will they handle true 5k down the track. Pics would be sweet if anybody has some. Thanks, Tim
 
You know what the funny thing is, everybody knows you need them but nobody actually has any experiance with them. Except Haisley wich get them from Enterprise. I call Schieds and talked to brad, he said we dont run anything other than stock. I replied with what about on your pulling truck, he replied with uh, um, it just ran stock setup. Thanks for the help brad. Surely somebody has some experiance with a high rpm setup that can help us out. Drew at enterprise was helpful in talking but i have to get my money back from the other ones first. Tim
 
I found springs for 125$ for all 24, they are made by crower and can withstand up to 9000RPMS the seat is going to vary around 100PSI but more talking to them for that , as for bridges and push rods they will b cryoed
 
The main problem with the ones i got is the retainers are 140 thou. thick. Stock ones at the fat part are like .088 thou. but taper down to the outside for ample clearance. Even if you shaved the retainers down to stock thickness, the locks are so beefy too that the bridge hits them before full resting on the valve. I hate to take chances like that when i know how i plan on turning this thing. Tim
