Johnson Piston Installation

Im putting new rings in a 235 johnson. I forgot which direction the piston faces when i put the back in. (should have made notes huh?)
any advise would be appreciated

The gently sloped side of the piston crown faces the exhaust ports. The abruptly sloped side faces the intake ports...

make sure the oil holes on the rods are facing upward, so oil can drip in the wristpin bearings.

good luck
