I installed my new AA piston in my type 2 bus engine yesterday and was wondering if it matters how the pistons are oriented in the cylinders? I guess I have a 50/50 shot of getting it right! Any thoughts? Thanks

Since the intake valves are bigger and have more lift and duration, I'll swag and say they're correctly oriented. But someone with more expertise than I would know.
