Rod bearings not aligning propertly
 
sup all, I am rebuilding my ls/vtec and I have across this problem (hopefully not).
I am using eagle rods and Topline (kings)bearings.
The bearings dont seem to align propertly with each other as you see on the pictures. Is this gonna cause a problem or are they fine?. I have a set of used ACL bearings and they are a little wider that the Kings and you can barely tell the miss aligment.
I checked to see if they gave me the wrong bearings but the box I have says RBH16 which checks out with being for an LS. Gsr and Type R are RBH18V.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

looks as if half the bearings are d16 and half b16
i wouldnt run that ---- but then again im not desperate and so i stick with factory bearings

I have also used Kings bearing for the mains and they were fine. I guess I will have take a loss and get ACLs.
