    In talking to Keith Sinley at Norwalk this past weekend, he was telling about a possible problem that a few guys had with the pins that come in a 494 kit. The pins in my kit came with Bill Miller pistons. Something about the pin breaking or coming out of the piston. Has anyone had this trouble? How do you know if you have the proper pins? I bought my kit in '95 but still haven't put it together yet.
