BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92) - View Single Post - Just bought a set of VAC/CALICO rod bearings

And they are not marked top/bottom specific so to those who have installed these, is is indeed acceptable to use them in any orientation?

I called VAC about this and was told that these and the "newest OEM bearings" are not top/bottom specific "like the old OEM bearings", and that I can install them in any orientation. 702/703 red/blue bearings are still current, are they not?
