hi my friend need to know how is the right way to position H rods by empi...
he says that it has a number only on one side...and not not the "I" like originals ones..
the side-number have to been down, up or is it the same?

thank u for the answer Dougy!
 i hope i traslate correctly "bearing tang"...


bearing tang= numbers

right?

no.

Bearing tang is a recess in rod and rod cap where the rod bearing is secured:



Anyway I raised the same question some time ago and was told that H-Beams are symmetrical so they can be installed both ways.
Only common habit says to install the bearing tangs down (facing to cam) so I did.
