Well, it's been a week and I'm happy to report that the n55 is running normally. In retrospect, I wish I had logged oil pressures in different conditions before and after the rod bearing change to see if there is any difference (monitoring via MHD). If you have any "normal" values for the n55, feel free to post them up! Otherwise, this was a fun and, hopefully informative exercise to demonstrate that the home mechanic can swap these out in the garage with hand tools. Thanks to everyone who offered advice along the way!
