you have to shave the small rod ends or the pistons to make the combo fit

yeah I would suggest a machine shop strongly. You dont need to have your rods resized for the ARP rod bolts. You need the 8mm ones, to be on the safe side you may want to have those installed prior to getting the small end milled and have them check the big end for out of round. This would save you time in the long run
