Pin maker BME offers Vasco-Max C300 for their top of the line pins. It may be a tweak better than H13.
At approximately 294,000 psi ultimate tensile, Miller says they're good for "one billion cycles at 125,000 psi. loading"!
If someone does end up ordering a set of BME wrist pins count me in 
They would be nice for the RC Triple. Currently I can only find standard Wiseco pieces. Pins are held in place with C clips.....no buttons.
Are the cranks sorted now Mike. Are the pins the only hold up ?
I keep getting PMs from people wanting to know, I'm sure they must think I live in Russ's back yard. haha.
Sam.
Waiting for #2 crank to be repaired. I don't know why people would be PM'ing you Sam....you couldn't physically be further from the project.
People have to understand a couple of things. First the original engines were...to be euphemistic...in rough shape. Pounds of silicone sealer, very dodgy case backing plates etc etc etc. After tearing those down and working with that crap for an eternity I came to the conclusion better to start with 3 fresh engines. Then there's getting that together, tear downs, cleaning, modifying, developing a well engineered case back system etc etc etc. To be absolutely honest how the bike won the "Best Engineered" NHRA title is beyond me. I guess they didn't see Russ siliconing a red shop rag to the back of an engine and screwing the plates in to help slow down the prodigious oil leaks.
Oh...and BTW....I work a full time job, own a home which means maintenance, and continue with porting etc.
I am waiting for the #2 crank. The only thing I am doing now is checking rod bolt stretch and getting the wrist pins in order. I thought the pins were in the sealed up piston boxes but they weren't....3 random pins were on a plastic bag along with other top end parts. I have 1 Wiseco pin coming to make sure it fits. I am not going to order 12, find out they don't fit and be stuck with them. Everything else (part gathering, painting, measuring etc) is done and the engines are ready for assembly.
This has been a long, tedious and, at times...very frustrating project secondary to me wanting to do a good job AND having to do 90% of the work myself. If it only involved 1 engine and the use of fresh parts it would have been a lot easier AND A LOT QUICKER that is for sure.
So....if anybody PM's you Sam tell them to PM me. 
Mike
You need to get some pictures of the cases now Mike then I think people would appreciate all of the engineering that you single handedly put into the resurrection of these engines. He's had some beautiful block-off plates made with the proper screw type and screw placement rather than some sheet metal and tons of silicone to compensate . Mike is a busy dude working full time while restoring the engines for the triple and takes on projects from idiots like me during his down time waiting for parts. He's not getting rich off of any of this stuff either its a labor of love more than anything.Just know this bike is gonna be #$%*IN once the engines are finished up
Cb750 Racer, you don't need to remind me what Mike has to work with or how busy he is, Mike and myself have lived together
both sides of the Atlantic, spent time racing and socializing together over many months.
Mike, I didn't think for one minute that you were dragging your feet. I know you can't do it all on your own and have to rely on
trusted out workers to do some of the jobs.
What I was meaning in my post, is it the out workers that are holding progress up, are they just mad busy and you don't want to trust the work to others ?
And Mike, people are asking me for up dates because as you know, It was me that started the RC supporters club here on the forum which raised quite a few thousand $ to get the projects started, what perhaps you don't know is, that I started a page on the social media network Facebook which has quite a large following. This is where most of the questions for up dates are coming from.
As Sue and myself are friends on Facebook, I can invite her to join the RC Legacy Motorsports page and you can view it yourself by using Sue's log in if you wish but that's only with your blessing. Please let Sue know if you would like me to do it then she can be on the look out for it.
Regards Sam.
