For what engine? I believe the B16A and H22 is #2 and the B18C is #3

I know for a FACT the B18A/B and B20B/Z is #3

It is the sizing of the big end of the rod. It and the size of the rod crank journals determine which size bearings you need. Honda has 4 sizes. On stock rods, the edge is stamped with 1,2,4 or 4.

We used Greens all the way across on my block with eagle rods...

all came up to a .020 plastiguage and the engine is really nice and easy spinning. <I may be a 0 off on this one>

WITH the timing belt and cams all hooked up, a 10 foot pound torque wrench wouldn't click when spinning it over on the engine stand

Depends on the size of your crank journals though. Maybe yours were all the same.
