All these inline 6's used V8 rod bearings, and they are all .842 in width for the I6's and V8's. The 194-250's uses the small journal V8 rod bearings(CB745), and the 292 uses the large journal V8 rod bearings(CB663). Yes, bearing crush is important in keeping the bearings in place, and the tangs keep the bearings from spinning in the housing bores, but of course you will need to use the right bearing for the correct housing bore size to obtain it also.
