If you can locate exactly where the pistons need modifying they could be modified on a lathe

It depends on your skill level and what you are confident to do.

Personally I'd just do what ever mods are needed to make it work myself.

On my roadster I took a small amount out of the chambers and a little bit off the pistons. But that's me and the heads are much more common.

I know what I'd do, but what I should advise you to do is more difficult.

A question, though. It has only made contact on one cylinder. It would be reasonable to assume the pistons are all the same. Therefore the heads need to be carefully measured to see if that chamber is different to the others. If it is different, then that one should be carefully clearanced to match the others.

The clearance can be checked with aluminium foil and grease.

In reality both the chambers and pistons would tolerate some careful trimming.

I would await the results of careful measuring before considering the best way to proceed.
