My question was I'm using the factory October and push rods. I ignored my markings and just put them anywhere. Now they lock up the crank because the connecting rod is binding. Have any idea how to tell where they go?
Your pistons and connecting rods got mixed up. I did that once before also. All you can do is move them around until you find the combination that works. Try looking at the rods and see if there are any markings on them at all. Post up some pictures as it might help to jog my memory.
The rods in my engine are aftermarket so I can't look at them to help you.

That's what I figured and Dodge never marked them lol
The only thing you can do at this point is to mark them A-H and then try each one in a different spot until you find the right combination. It's going to take some time but I don't know any other way to figure it out.
Now you should be able to tell on some of them which side they go on but right now I can't remember how. .
