Long story short, I dropped a valve and it killed one of my pistons. Salvaging the build I want to reuse as much as possible. I ordered a new mahle piston to replace the one that died. The new piston has a thicker wrist pin 22mm I believe. The old one looks to be 21mm. So my rods accept a 21 currently. Would I be able to get the wrist pin section of the rod bored out to use this new piston? Trying to not get 1,000s into getting it going again. Please reply if you have machine experience or have dealt with this yourself.
