I would go with Parazine option 7, but you need to be skilled at scraping bearings to do this. I took 10 thou out of Austin rod big ends, scraping by hand to fit some good rods to a new Phoenix crank. It was okay up to 6500 rpm until a little end bolt lost its head, when it got slightly noisy. The bolt had been new 25000 miles earlier when the Phoenix went in. Some things you can't allow for.
