Thank you for all the response. This does give me some thoughts to ponder. I didn't want to over simplify this. Getting the big end of the rod out of round and bolt stretch were my two main concerns. I am going to look into possibly just changing the nuts out with new ARP's. The engine has to go back to the machine shop for other work, might just be cheap insurance to take the rods and have them redone.
