Look at the numbered marking on the sides, the rod will have half of the number on it and the cap will have the other half. Try to match up the markings. If that doesn't work, have your machinist recondition the rods so your big bores are true and weight matched.

What?
Are you asking if it matters which rod and piston combo goes to which cylinder in the block? Yes it does matter, since the rotating assembly is balanced from the factory.
