Whats the firing order 66 F100?

Its a 66 F100 with a 240/300 big six.
Hows the plug wires hook up to the distributor.
And whats the firing order of the plugs, front to back?
I'm putting in a DUI distributor.

it should be marked on the intake
mine is marked 153624 find TDC on #1 piston and your set, pop the cap and see where your rotor is pointing.
(edit). looks like number 1 is about 3 Oclock on the cap, the firing order goes clockwise
