Default 6.125 rod question w/pic
i noticed a big enough gap to see the rod bearing (when the crank is in the right position) while putting my 6.0 together. stock crank, aftermarket rods, i know they have a chamfer on one side for aftermarket cranks and a stock crank has basically no filets on the crank. my pic sucks but i outlined where the rod bearing is visible. this normal?

There should not be any thing wrong. Of course were assuming that you checked the bearing tolerances and that the rods don't feel lose.
