Run some ARM mains abd rod bolts, for the money the security is well worth it.

Rod bolts you should ALWAYS measure using a stretch gauge, torque has far too many variable which alter readings.

Mains you cannot measure stretch, but make sure your torque gauge is very very accurate, a good beam or dial type.

Check the crank first, it might not need grinding, just a very very light polish, then you wont need to go oversize on the bearings.
