Look at the offset on the rod caps. When in doubt watch close as the rod bearing locates on the crankshaft. If it is correct it will be centered on the journal. If it is backwards it will not center and if you attempt to tighten a rod cap it will bind on one side. The picture will also show you which way they go.
