LOL...Our diagrams look the same except for the fact that mine are labled left on the left and right on the right. The manual states that the left bank cylinders are numbered 1-3-5-7 , etc. Manual than states that the piston pins are offset 1/16" toward thrust side (right hand side) to provide gradual change in thrust pressure against cylinder wall as the piston travels it's path. Based on what you have shown, I think your offset assymetrical is right. My diagram in the book is somewhat misleading.

Thanks for helping out a newbie such as me!
