If there is enough meat between the studs, boring to the bigger size would seem to be the easiest way.
You sound like you have sleeved main bores back to standard before. That is another reletavley easy way to go.
As a last resort, you could make aluminum bearings to fit. Just give them .002 more clearance than stock.
