Hi Spex, conrod centres are 6”. I can see no reason why you shouldn’t bore these rods to suit your crank as long as the white metal is in good condition.I know people remachine undersize rods to suit new cranks.I have had rods remachined in the past with good results.
It would be easier if you had a Conrod boring jig on a lathe, but careful setup and adequate holding on the mill should work.
Bearing clearance .0015” to 002”
Be interesting to see your jig/ holding device. Something like this https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=conrod...cHARjzEQjM:
