1955 Patrician 352 bearing sizes

Hello. I am rebuilding my 55 352 and I am unsure how to read the bearing sizes on the rod and main bearings. On the rod bearings ther are the letters Fm and below that are numbers 2 55. It does not say STD or anything. Does anyone know the correct reference?

Can't help with the numbers but FM is Federal Mogul, the bearing manufacturer.

In the absence of decoding the numbers, why not just measure the journal diameter?

It's in the literature archive on the left. 55-56 service manual, engine section, before the troubleshooting at the end it lists all the specifications.
