    You would be better off replacing the whole connecting rod rather than just the cap and bolts in my opinion.

    For sure. Using a different rod cap means the connecting rod/cap assembly will have to be resized as a unit at the machine shop, thus it's got to be separated from the piston.

    Using a mismatched rod/cap is an invitation for total disaster.

    If you need one for a 350, I think I have some laying around.
