With the rods I have, in order to seperate the caps I have to back out the 
bolts 

a few turns and tap the bolts with a soft mallet to seperate them. 

I use plastigauge to check my main clearances but it seems that tapping 

on the rod bolts may tend to affect a plastigauge measurements on the rod 

journals. I'd appreciate any feedback on checking rod clearances. 

Thanks as always,
