hello so I rebuilt a red top sr20det recently and installed it in my s13 driveshaft hooked up everything hooked up minus a turbo fuel injectors air intake and fmic. one thing that came to my mind today after watching an ej20 rebuilder was can our rod caps be installed backwards? I remember lining up my rod caps with the notches on the same side is that the right way to do it or am I possibly screwed? the motor spins over by hand easily it feels good and after I timed it and spun it sounded like it made compression just like normal.
