Other than the obvious (journal/rod diameters) the only other issue I've heard of is a tendency of the rods to hit against the sides of the crankcase. I believe the B block is relieved a bit for clearance at this place.

It is possible to compensate for this.

I explored the option but have yet to act on it.
