Are you sure you're not thinking of wrist pin
diameters?  Everthing I've ever seen and heard says
the rod bearings are the same size, with the exception
of Eric's page
http://not2fast.gotdns.com/vw/stuff/vw_engines.html
According to him the journals are smaller!

Anyone know for sure?  This would be usefull in the
future beacause I was going too use my onld MC crank
and block for a custom motor at some point.  I guess I
could just go measure it later, but I have no calipers
at the moment.

TIA
