Theres a fair bit of meat on the pistons on the XU7 so you could do that. Just dont over cook it. Remember, the less there is on them, the weaker they become, and more susceptible to stressing in heat. Its about finding the right compromise.
As said before, these engines are ideal due to their shorter stroke length and larger pistons and pots. Also they are a wet liner engine, so will remain relatively cooler. I'd be tempted to stick a larger rad on too, but then i worry about things
