Thanks for the picture Mumbles. Always worth a thousand words. We were always told the wider I-beam rods helped spread the loads over a wider area. This was true wheather a bushing or rod bearings. Several HP motors got into problems over the years (later) with digging into the crank hardened surface. It was a problem OMC had to keep learning over & over!
