That's actually a contradiction Bill because the journal shells are set 
into the block.

FYI the crankpins are different between odd and even fire, but the main 
journals are all the same.

The block castings are only different in terms of liner seat diameter 
otherwise they are all identical (as far as I've seen to date). The B27 
I assume is the 2664cc engine and has 88mm pistons. There are various 
capacities set by stroke, but all PRV engines have either 88, 91 or 93mm 
pistons. Compresion is set by piston crown and conrods are all identical 
on even fire, and all identical on odd-fire engines. All PRV conrods are 
forged too - bet ya didn't know that :-) There're all sorts of 
possibilities for hybrid engines. I'm building one at the moment.
