porting oil holes in rods ????????????

well i'm going to be putting together my y7 soon and i was wondering since the y7 have problem spinning bearings. if porting out the little hole that is on the rod to help with lubrication is a good idea ? that along with a z6 oil pump should solve any problems

i think the opposite would happen, i wouldnt enlarge them. We are talking about the holes for pin/piston lube correct, the ones in the rod itself?

Open the oil holes on the main bearings and port the oil pump housing like they do in this write-up
