Does anyone know if the 194.5 ci 4 cylinder used the same rod as the 389ci ?

Im asking because the 4 cyl doesnt share its journal with another rod like the 8 cyl does. So would having an offset on the rod big end , would it send it off center from the piston pin?

When i rebuilt mine i used Eagle H beams. Theres an offset on the big end. When i installed the rod and piston it put the rod up against the piston boss at the pin. So i had to mill material off the side of the rod to clearance it.

Does the stock rod have this offset?

Can anyone post a couple of pictures of an actual 4 cyl rod showing the big end to show if it has an offset?

Thanks .
