Hello,
I have an AA 2056 cylinder set, there are cut outs on each side of the cylinder skirt, the cut outs are not the same on each side. Is there is a reason why the cut outs are a different and which way should the cut outs be orientated Thanks in advance  |

It is irrelevant that those cuts are different. The cylinders have to be next to each other, and the flat sides are the flat sides. Whether one is on one side or the other, it is the same. Both large cuts are toward the center of the engine, not the outsides. You cant install them any other way.

Don't!! We all have to learn by asking questions. Sometimes, I look at something and should see the answer staring at me... and then someone else comes along and .... you just learn. The only dumb question is the one you don't ask my friend...
