Default oil squirters might be hitting crank

Me and my boy just tor down my freshly built motor to see want was hitting inside the motor? ( Yes hitting inside the motor). When we first started the motor when you tried to rev the motor up it sound like something hitting a shield or something in the motor. Well today we took the head off to see if it was coming from the head but everything looked fine. I dropped the oil pan, windage tray, and oil pickup and had my friend turn the crank to see if we could see anything. At first nothing but then I noticed 2 notches on #2 and #3 oil squirters. ANd for some reason when the #2 and #3 pistons come down the cleareance is real tight. My question is i dont want to remove them b/c i know the importance but has anybody had a similar problem like thisa and what might be a few ideas to fix this problem?
My set up is the following:

Gsr Block
Darton M.I.D Sleeve Kit
83mm Cp pistons
Eagle Rods

the bigger bore is prolly the problem, you can bent them out of the way or you can plug them since aftermarket pistons dont need the squirters.

What would the bore have to do with the oil squirters being hit by the crank? There notches on the oil squirters are on the bottom side not the top so its not pistons hitting, right. Shouldnt I be able to bend them to the side a little just to clear the crank? And also dont the oil squirters help in the cooling of the pistons during high revs and hard driving?
