Enlarging feed hole in stator pin

[Morkai]

In Bruce's guide he talks about enlarging the oil feed hole in the stator pin to increase oil feed to the washer. "Drill feed hole .040 for feed to washer." Is .040 set in stone, or will the .052 drill I have work? I believe that's the smallest I have. I just wanted to make sure that wouldn't be too large of a hole.

Anybody? Bruce, Mark?

No opinions?

I really want to drill this thing and move on, will I be ok with the .052" or should I leave it alone. The chances of me finding a .040 bit are slim to none, esp this late...
