[HWYSTR455]

5th time being pulled up, assuming they were sized (or checked) on the original build, and sized this upcoming time. But in my opinion, the bolts would still be good to use.

If you're leery about it, replace the bolts, and get the upgraded ones. Now would be the time to do that if you're having the rods sized.

I agree, top bearing half looks beaten from det. It's possible it's from being out of round, if the rods weren't originally sized/checked, but personally, I would replace the bolts, have them sized, and the crank checked too.

If you are going internally balanced, don't forget you need a neutral balancer, and would recommend an SFI one (if you don't already have one).
