Exclamation Oil squirters clearence problem!

Hi guys, was hoping somebody could shine a little light on my problem. I've got a 2.0 cdb and a cosworth stroker kit, I've just done a dummy build and found the piston hits the oil squirter! I'd rather not have the piston ground or remove the squirters is it possible to sit them down further into the block? Any ideas or suggestions please?

Had this on my CDB build.

You have three options.

1, Machine the pistons,
2, Machine the block to sit the squirters lower
3, lose the squirters altogether and cap of the holes for them.

I, Like a few others chose option one.

These are taken from Andy's build who had the same issue on his.

My block was machined to lower the squirters.
