Default L26 connecting rod

So I ordered the powdered metal connecting rods from zzp and they're still all one piece can anybody tell me how I'm supposed to go about breaking them so I can install them.

If not by hand I use a small tap hammer.Rods are scored and the split real easy.Just a small tap usually does it.Make sure you loosened the bolts.Hope this helps.
