Helping a friend rebuild his 390. When he put the rod bearings in, they are not centered in the cap? Is this right? They seem to be off a little more than 1/16" or so to one side. Should the gap on the two rods be on the inside or outside of the journal?

Some are offset on one side, and some on the other. Plus, this was a crate motor so there isn't any rod numbering (we don't know if a certain rod should be in any particular cylinder).

Any help appreciated.
