Just realized that my 36 VLD bottom end (recently assembled by Paul Freibus) has the forked connecting rod back and the single rod forward. Does this really matter? I've tried calling Paul, but they don't pick up, so left a message. Look at the Vendors thread for more on the topic of American Cycle Fab.
Steve's book is very clear that HD assembled engines with the forked rod forward until 1939, when I guess it changed to forked rod back?
Johnny Sells book on 45's goes into great detail on crank assembly, but doesn't mention connecting rod position at all.
Just trying to determine if I need to take it back apart to correct this - does it really matter?
