Default mismatched connecting rods / caps
Had some piston/connecting rods get tossed around in a crate with their caps and everything got "mislabeled / unpaired". Do I need to get new ones, go to a machine shop, etc??

Sometimes rods and caps get a number stamp?

They can be measured and matched back up by a machine shop, but I'd compare cost.

Who took it apart? First thing I always do is mark the caps and rods before disassembly.
