Paul,
No oil holes. That's why this issue is important for me to define in
terms that make sense to me. Dave says in Guzziology that the flat
machined sides of the rods face the right side cylinder. That doesn't
make sense to me in regards to the right rod. So, when installed, what
I'm seeing is both flat sides facing up.

Not sure that that really matters. Look for the tiny oil holes on the
rod themselves. Guzziology mentions these and they have to be pointing
the right way.

I read the archives and Guzziology but wanted to double check in my own
terminology.

When assembled, both rods have flat, machined areas along the bolt edge
facing upward.

Please tell me I don't have to re-do.

Thanks
Ray
