When I rebuilt the top end of mine 4 or 5 months ago I used Glyco rod bearings that were bought from Pelican around around 4 years ago. They were vacuum bagged in plastic on to a piece of white cardboard that was inside the box.
That protected them really well and they were in beautiful condition with no nicks or marks anywhere.
They are working perfectly in my '87 930 with excellent oil pressure and this is the only picture I have that shows a little bit of one of them.
I balanced all the rods to within 1/10 of a gram on a triple beam scale. You can see where I removed metal to do that.
I also had the rods resized and new wrist pin bushings installed and honed to fit the new wrist pins at a local automotive machine shop and Raceware rod bolts are installed in them.
