On #7 & #8. The rod caps were backward from all the others. Ther is a side with 90 degrees and an angled side. If that makes sense. He said that the machine shop who pressed the pistons on the rods must have put the last two on backwards. Since there is only one way the bearings and caps go on.
He didn't think it was a big deal.
