List

This reminds me... Here in Europe we start  tuning pin sizes at 6.7 mm, then
6.9's before we get to 7 mm's which are roughly equal to the 1.0 pin size in the
US.  size 2.0 (US) is around 7.15 mm and that size here is used by most techs I
have run into as the first (smallest) size of pin for repinning a block.

One other thing as long as I am thinking about it. In milmeters if you will, how
much difference do you all recommend between bore size and pin size ?

Thanks
