I split open 1.9 & 2.1 like soup can those days (mostly top-end)... nothing
to worry about those rods, unless, when warm, you hear a banging noise...
the rods noise (very rare) is more obvious when warm. "Split-case" boxer engine

are more complex than we think, don't open this one for nothing.

Don't put new sleeves & pistons for nothing also, new/reman heads + new
pistons & sleeves can be hard on an old crank (higher compression)

If you have any questions, contact me in private.... i have tons of others
pictures.

Cheers, Ben
