You can see the dowels in this one aong with the holes for the main bolts/studs.
The dowels are connected to the main by a side bolt.

Here you can see the dowels on the outside edges of the mains, along with the main bolts still in tack. Two per main. With two side bolts per main

ANd if anyone buys good rods, please get the 7/16 arp bolts. Alot of the knock offs and cheap manleys give you 3/8 arp 8740's

I returned the MMR's for olivers.
