Can't do, A 10hp has a (roughly) 3.250" piston, the 12hp has a (roughly) 3.5" piston. That's 1/4"....unless you sleeve it....but I don't think you could remove that much material without makeing it paper thin....if it even has room to go 1/4".
Second, the strokes different, which means the piston height may be different...but I know the rods are different, so the height may be the same.....doesn't matter. The price of sleeving it is probably higher that buying a new piston.
We'll need someone else opinion here.
