Same as TII pins, FYI. I'll dig around and see if I have any good ones.

You should be able to get new wrist pins from any of the piston manufacturers for about $20 per pin if no one comes through for you.

Any good machine shop can cut them down. It is not that uncommon.

I don't mean to sound cynical, but they're a machined part, not a cast part. I can't see how machining the pins to the required length could lead to a failed component or compromised material. I'd vote to have T2 pins machined to your spec.

i dont want them resize and i dont have lots of them , thats means i would have to disasemble my engine to get the pins , i want genuine wrist pins , thats what i want

Try calling a local machine shop. If they don't have the stock in house they can probably get it.
