What the ---- is a cylinder brace? Do you mean a block guard? If it's a block guard throw it in the garbage. With zdyne gold and only 12 psi you won't need to do anything for the cylinder walls. Just make sure it's tuned well and you will be fine.

I heard pinning creates high stress points at all the pins and actually do more harm than good. At least a block guard is a distributed load applying the brace all around the cylinders instead of a small concentrated stress point
