You would need to drill the small end and press fit a bronze bushing then hone to size.
I prefer to use aftermarket rods, they are much stronger than the stock rods.

Re: Floating wrist pins Heres the situation. I recently ordered a set of pistons, and now I do not have the money to upgrade the rods. My intent was to use a lunati rod which I guess is a floating pin setup. I dont have the money to get them anymore, and I wont have it anytime soon. Would I be able to get the stock rods fitted with bushings at any machine shop or would it be a custom setup. I would like to keep the stock rods, because as of now, I have already had everything balanced and upgraded the bolts. Have you heard of anyone doing this??
