Thanks to all who have replied.  I looked at the camshaft assembly drawing and the holes are supposed to be 0.078" +0.003/-0.000 so it looks like these are 5/64" pins, not 3/32".

A list member has replied and says he has these so it looks like my roll-pin need will be met.

I'm going to disassemble the cams and see what size those washers are.  Hopefully, I can locate a few of these locally; if not, then maybe someone can point me to these as well.

My main reason for asking here is I was hoping someone might have a donor deck.  I'm sure I can buy these parts via the net or mail-order, but the shipping and handling costs just kill you for things like this.  One supplier I looked into had great prices on the parts ($1.00 for 25/ea. packs, etc.), with no minimum, but their $12.00 shipping cost just made this very cost ineffective.

Thanks again guys!
