Face all numbers forward and any writing in the pistons the correct way up.

Wayne,
My Lycoming Overhaul Manual for 235 and 290-D page 34 section 8.. First...
"the cap must be assembled to the rod so that the numbers are adjacent to
each other. In other words, the cap must not be assembled with its number
on the opposite side from the number on the rod."
Second..."It is important, also to assemble the connecting rods to the
crankshaft in such a manner that numbers stamped on the rods will be in the
downward position when the engine is finally assembled."
I also verified this with a Lyc tech sometime ago during an engine rebuild
as well. Have a great time building. Take Care.
