Waking Up a Turd

Kindof depends on what you call a side. If you took got those numbers on the wristpin axis then yeah it could be bent.
But if you measured at 90* to the wrist pin axis, then that is just piston rock; average the numbers and you get the proper deck clearance.
Oh believe me. The #7 rod is bent. Complete with abnormal wear pattern on the piston skirt.
Numbers were taken at the pin axis (or as close as i could get) and i had a friend help me verify.
Once i removed it, We could hold it up and see the bend.
