    320 main bearing caps

    Guys, I hate asking this question, but I can't find in the sources any info about the arrow on top of the main bearing caps, and I just forgot from when I took it apart. Do they point to the front or the rear of the block when assembled? Thanks

    On all the mains I've seen the arrow pints to the front.
