Are you sure they are not numbered? Best choice now, is to see if there are any marks or features that would tie one to another. The real test is to measure them, torqued, with a dial bore gage. Also I would never return to that machine shop.

if you can't figure out which rods and caps go together. Maybe ask the machine shop to figure it out or recondition the rods (with new bolts) at their expense for mixing them up on you. They need to learn from their mistakes.
There are too many details that need to be done to do the job correctly.
. And don't forget the oil galley plug under the rear main bolt hole and did the distributor bushing get replaced and properly sized? tmm

Or the two that go behind the camshaft thrust plate. Our first engine, the machine shop left those out and had low oil pressure until I found they were left out and replaced them. It only took pulling the engine 4 times, and then finally making my own priming shaft (they were not made back then by MP) to find the problem.... :banghead:
