3 bearing connecting rods
#1
I need some guidance please.  I have dismantled our 3B engine to renew main bearings. (Crank crack tested, all OK).  Those familiar with this engine will know that each con rod is offset on the big end bearing, presumably to accommodate amendments to the crankshaft to make space for the centre bearing while using the original bore spacing.  On our engine the rods do not line up with the centre line of the cylinder bore and I'm wondering if the rods have been fitted the wrong way round.  Viewed from below, currently for cylinders 1 & 4 the big end cap bolts are furthest from the centre bearing. For cylinders 2 & 3 the cap bolts are closest to the centre bearing.  Is this right?  Any help gratefully received...
Cheers from Chris and Hilary
