What size SS rink shank nails to use for redwood 4';x1/2'; siding w/o sheathing?

What size stainless rink shank nails should I use for redwood 4';x1/2'; siding when I'm attaching it straight to the studs without any plywood sheathing? This is on a 1920's home and we are restoring/replacing some bad siding but won't be adding any plywood sheathing underneath. I was figuring 5d 1 3/4'; nails, giving me 1 1/4'; penetration.What size SS rink shank nails to use for redwood 4';x1/2'; siding w/o sheathing?
