That's great Terry, I had no idea that pin fit so many diverse engines. It will be interesting to see whether the 700 pin actually measures 1.88. Anyway, good luck with them. Andy

Andy and Terry, you are correct about the 580 wrist pin length, mine measures 1.6195 with a wall thickness of .083. That 1.88 length is for the 700. My AH 58 and 61 wrist pins measure 1.592 with a .074 wall thickness.
