Augusto, also be aware that since these rods were also torqued on the crankshaft in this manner, the bearings can also have been damaged by being squeezed onto the journals with a lack of clearance. You also need to thoroughly inspect the bearings to ensure they haven't had flat spots compressed into their surfaces when this was done. It will be easy to detect the damage, but just be aware that simply re-sizing the rods may not be all that is required to fix the problem you have.
