actuallly those numbers on the rods aren't place numbers, but I believe they are the size numbers you are talkign about which are used to get correct bearing sizes, so keep an eye on which rod you pull off of which cylinder and don't get the bearings confused.
Sounds like your on ur way though. Let me know how that goes, because I have a spare f22 sitting around, that I am really tempted to throw back into the car when I get my other motor sleeved. I wanna do a ghetto fabulous NA built on it for shits and giggles, planning to spend about 500 bucks max on the mods,
