Rod question

Hey all, I tore down the 390 that I bought to rebuild and now have a question about the rods. #s 1-4 have C6AE-C on them, 5-8 have C7AE-B. Are there any differences in the two? If so, are the differences worth worrying about? I am sure that I will be asking more questions in the future as this is my first total engine rebuild. I intend on purchasing the book that everyone talks about by Steve Christ. Thanks.

Rod question

the C7AE-B are 427 high performance rods (same size as 390 rods)
I don't see any listingd for the others. lay them on top of each other and see if they are the same lenght and width
