I've never seen a main cap walk issue. Did Watson show you the issue or do you have any pics of it? I'm interested to see what it looks like.
You also mention the wrong rings and bearings. I assume they where sized correctly, what did he say saw wrong with them? Since I'm building up my engine I'm interested to know more.

Yep. He showed me some of the issues while we talked. No pics tho.
Rings were not necessarily wrong per se... just not good for my application per Watson. They were napier 2nd rings. They want to switch those out.
Bearings he said were mismatched. They were a mixture of hard and soft. A throw together job it appears.
