One through eight cylinders, as viewed from the Flexplate, the offset pin, if offset orientated toward the left side, will be happy, because the Engine is turning CCW as viewed from the Flexplate? Correct me if I am wrong, please. Note: this seems different when you consider only the CCW rotation and not just the up and down loads on the piston, and not taking into account of the CCW rotation?

Could you define the major and minor in piston offset relationship please?

This is what I thought, that the piston pin was offset, on Pontiac toward the inside, because the Thrust side was on the outside. So, if they reverse the offset of the pin, they would have moved the pin toward the outside.

I can visualize the second part.

You say:

P.S. "The first set of piston pictures is correct. The second set is wrong."

Mikes reply:

What pictures are you talking about?

I reread your statement; the right bank's major is on the outside as I thought and the left Bank's major is on the outside as well.

Correct me if I am wrong, please.
