Yup,provided it doesn't have a ridge at the top of the cylinder.If its a babbit engine it might have shims under the rod caps.If your going that far do an 'overhaul',check and adjust main bearing clearances,change piston ring hone cylinders and adjust rod bearing clearances,clean oil pump and lap valves..freshen it up all the way around.
