Ok, for the passenger side of the distributor cap, what order do the spark plug wires connect? I had to take them off for the manifold swap, but in what order do they go back on? I just need the passenger side and starting from the top (closest to manifold) to bottom (closest to frontmost part of car) thank you very much.

god, that's what everybody is saying, but on mine i think atleast 3 from 1/2/3/4 are on the passenger side of the car while 1 goes over, and 1 from the drivers comes to the passenger side, now 2/2 i thought it was 3/1 for the cross over. Could it be the person before me had them improperly installed??

edit: also, is the above firing order, going clockwise or counterclockwise?
