oleb97,

The firing order is 153624. The distributor rotates clockwise. For the perfectionist, #1 would be in the three o'clock position and the rest would parade around in sequence of firing order (clockwise).

The location of #1 isn't arbitrary. It's imperative you identify TDC for #1 cylinder, insert the distributor, making sure it's engaged in the oil pump. Now you install the rotor and make sure that the wire going to #1 plug is somewhere close to where the rotor is pointing.
