David,
In my teardown notes I have that the 'Moto Guzzi' faces of both conn
rods face forward.

 OK, Putting the lump back together and got a question on the rods. Which

way do the oil holes on the big ends fit. The manual I have says "left
rod faces up and right rod faces down" or something. I don't know what
this means unless the engine is assumed to be lying on it's side. What I

really need to know is if the oil holes face outboard or inboard on each

side. Or even easier, which way does the stamped "Moto Guzzi" on the
rods face?
