Will that really mess up things that much? I know that the spacing of crank axis and cylinder axis are finely optimized slightly apart, but I gotta say I've put together a lot of motors modified in numerous different ways and I've never seen a problem obviously attributable to that of all things. Looks to me like one of the many measurements in an engine, like piston dome shape, which you could get fairly wrong and it wouldn't affect anything other than peak horsepower by a few percent. It's not like the wrist pin and cylinder aren't going to get lubricated or anything. Nothing's going to bind on anything else. But I dunno I've never bored a cylinder myself.
