Putting pistons in my 383. Seeing trouble with rod bearing
All these pics show the tangs on opposite sides but your photo in post 14 has the tangs on the same side of the rod.
Why?
Also the tang looks to be in different spots because some of those bearing shells are narrower for cranks with radius on the journals.
no its all the rods. what a waste of time and money this is turning out to be. pistons made in india, bearings that arent to spec.
whats next?
You can see the rock auto image shows the corners cut off on the tang side only.
on the H series, that tang is in outer space and only the upper has the corners cut off. look at the tang spacing, thats gonna be offset too. the lower is on the edge. really bad on the V series
