Default What could be the problem?

My 1st set of manley rods wont fit due to rod clearences being off, the big hole was to small basically..

i recieved the new set.. they came in, they still will not fit... Do the rods need to be machined to work with a itr crank? or my crank journals to big..

im afraid even if i buy eagle rods they still wont fit.

most rods don't need to be machined when they come from the mfg

yes i trust him, i do not doubt him.. im looking for an answer to my problem?

are both sets of my manley rods bad? or my crank journals to big?

should i just get eagle rods and call it a day?
