I have my engine torn down and have noticed others having problems with connecting rods should I be checking or even changing the connecting rod fastners while the engine is this far apart?

You'll notice that the only people with rod problems are 3.2 and 3.3 turbo drivers. Unless you race at very high RPM (over 7500) you don't need to worry about your rod bolts.

You should be fine with the stock bolts.
