While waiting 2 weeks for the new piston the rod journal had expanded enough that the rod cap would not go on. A local machine shop refit the rod and cap. We have logged over 100,000 miles since with no problems. I would advise that if your engine will be apart for any length of time to place the rod caps on the rods while stored.
