I've never heard of pin problems on a 335. Unless you run it over 6,000 maybe.

Search some of SHAZAM'S posts. Several months back he told of how this could be done. I believe that you can either drill a diagonal hole from the back of the oil ring into the pin hole or float the pins. There is also a redesign on some types of pistons for better pin oiling.
