Isn't there a bushing to to go from the stock mopar piston pin sized rod to a .990 piston pin? Any idea who made or carried them? My damn 451 pistons about 4 thou too small after hone. All the pistons now are .990 pin & it looks like Icon 823 may work for me except it's .990 pin style piston.

Yes there is. Google connecting rod pin bushing. I can't remember who the supplier was, but there were a couple of name brand company's that offer bushings for this conversion.I was looking for a bushing to mate a Mopar rod to a Ford piston. You will find it

What I'd like to know: what's the minimum bushing wall thickness?
