Default b16b pistons into b16a motor

I have b16b pistons and i want to put it into my b16a motor. The thing is that how much do i have to trim off my rods so the pistons will fit? I was told it was trim off 1mm but i wasnt sure. My pistons are oversize 82mm. thanks

This is not really '92-00 Civic/del Sol specific. Try here next time: https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum/44

You have to have 1mm machined off each side of the small end of the rod.

By the way, you're going to end up with 11.7:1 static compression with an OEM head gasket. The PCT pistons will stick out the top about .006-.007", or more if the block has ever been decked. Have fun with that . . .
