Please check your rod cap torque before shipping engines to retailers. DOM 4/29/19-yes it was a Monday build. Thought for sure the PO failed to put oil in this engine. Engine looks brand new including cylinder wall! Pulled cover off bottom and saw the rod bearing, rod cap, crankshaft and bearing were clearly destroyed. First rod cap bolt I removed (top/first photo) was barely finger tight. Other rod cap bolt appeared properly torqued.
