Not Ranked
David,
I have a new Trigo rim sitting in my garage if you need a reference for holes and I have the Trigo pin tool if you want to check a 5 pin fit-up. (Amazing the stuff you find in a clean garage... ) Everyone should also remember that Superformance cars only used Trigo rims early on. First they had steel wheels with fake hubs, then Trigo's and then WAW's. I don't know if the pins are all the same, (Dia and length) but I do know for sure that the spinners are different on Trigo and WAW rims...
edit:
I looked it up:
up to 300ish - steel wheels
300ish to 800ish - Trigo wheels
800ish and up - WAW wheels
I also find some notes about the taper angle changing from the early pins to the newer pins...quote...
"...early stud-bolts (green/brown) with the 1/2" allen-key tended to warp and expand, the later ones (silver) with the 12mm key seem not to be parallel looking at thread and barrel, plus the taper is not the same as the one on the adapter. no matter what you torque, it is prone to loosen..."
Interesting old thread on CC in "Shop Talk" area - search Trigo Pin - then read "Trigo pins binding" thread...
