Default Firing Order Question??

I seem to have misplaced my manual and I know where number 1 is on the block and where number 1 is on the distributor but as for the rest no clue. Does anyone have a good site to show me the numbers on the block and the distributor. And no I don't have the original intake to look at the numbering unfortunatly.

Thanks Guys

Yep..Make sure the other end of the plug wires are going to the correct plugs. Easy to switch a few around!

If you have a factory intake, the number of the cylinder is on the intake runner
