Unfortunately, I don't know any names for you, but if any of the guys using
CNC have a turning center, they could make custom sizes for you pretty easily,
I'd think.

Burton LeGeyt is your man for custom pins.

Large variety with skirt sizes listed
Their pins have always fitted holes reamed with my 3 deg reamer.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I found someone to do it, custominlay.com. They don't even upcharge for the custom size:)
