I am double checking my rotating assy and wanted to make sure the oil spurt holes on the rods were facing in towards the cam. I can't see any spurt holes at all. However, the rods have a notch on one side only just above the big end's upper diameter. When I pressed them in, I recall 1-3-5-7 went one way and 2-4-6-8 went the other. I saw this in a book at the machine shop and it doesn't appear to be in our manual. Does anyone know the correct orientation? I read the rod's bearing tangs are suppose to be oriented toward the bottom of the oil pan. I'd rather not take it apart to check since I can see the rod notch without removal. Each set is facing away from each other on each journal. Also, since I can't see an oil spurt holes, how in the world is my cam shaft getting oil to the lobes? Probably a dumb question but I can't figure it out.
