Wait a second here!  It doesn't say it was a 1098, but what else has full
floating wrist pins?  So now they want a 1275?  I'm confused on this
article.  1275 has press fit pins in the rods.

Teflon buttons on a 1098 are a typical cure for retaining wrist pin clips,
so why the search for a different style engine?  Am I missing something?
