[Tigers] Bearing Question? (Conecting)

If the rods have a piston oiling hole in the main bearing saddle, then you should be using bearings that have a matching hole so that the oil can get squirted up to the piston when the oil passage in the crank passes it by. Maybe the bearing halves are different for the upper saddle and the rod bearing cap?
