I'll throw in a vote for not splitting the case. You are replacing the rod bolts and can inspect or replace the rod bearings. The only thing you will not be looking at are the intermediate shaft and main bearings. Yes the intermediate shaft bearings are always showing copper but so what? They probably look like that after 1000 miles. If the rod bearings look good then you can assume the mains are good as well. Save yourself some money and lots of time and the potential of doing something wrong by not splitting the case. If you find a bad rod bearing then by all means split the case otherwise I don't see a down side.
