Well, I thought the post was about mains, but it clearly says rod caps so in that case those rods with swapped out caps should be re-sized at a machine shop because in the case of rods you should not swap caps and if you do they should be checked for size and re-sized if needed. These old engines are not so different than modern engines in terms of clearances and basic construction and workings of the bottom end. The blocks will have been line bored/honed because there is no other way to manufacture them if you think about it and expect the crank to turn after you tighten the caps. The point of my post is to at least be aware and if you choose to ignore don't be surprised if you run up against heap big trouble.
