Hi, I have the scat H-Beam rods, I'm about to install them now I just need to know which direction I install the rods?

The rods have a serial number on them, both side look the same.

I have wiseco pistons and the (DOT) on the top of the piston goes towards the TIMING side right?

:aha:
 
I have over heard the builder of my last say the rod bearing tang goes on the exhaust side.
The dot on the pistons goes tward the timing belt. Double check the valve releifs on the pistons are for the correct valve.
 
I got the answer. And yes its the notch to the exhaust side and the (DOT) goes towards the timing belt side
