Default dunno lsvtec

last time i did this i used ls rods w/b16a1 pistons and it worked fine now im runnning into another problem this time built a new motor with ls rods w/itr pistons usdm but the itr pistons underskirt where the ls rod area where the wrist pin installs into the piston wrist pin bore area ls rod will not fit in between the itr piston unlike when i use itr piston w/ itr rod. theres play but not with the ls itr setup. any advice would be appreciated!!!

you have a machine shop open up the wrist pin area on the piston to fit the ls rod. Did this on my engine and have over 35k+ miles.
