OP Bugman Active BB Member B Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 44 Evansville, WI	I need to know if the Dodge/Plymouth(small block) and Chrysler/Desoto(big block) flatheads use the same diameter rod journals. I'm bidding on some 251 Dodge bearings and need to know if they'll fit in my 230 Plymouth. Thanks in advance. -Jeff
