Question plug wires, Need help!

Hello again,
I was working on replacing plug wires on an E-150 (?) 302. I think the wire lengths were jacked up from the get-go. It doesn't help the box of wires had 10 in it.
Do any of you folks out there know plug wire lengths per plug?
I'm sure in a bind now! Please help!!!

Lay your wires out in order of length. Start with the longest to go on the furthest reach, and work back from there. One of those extras was a coil wire. Make sure before you get into it that you have the correct diameter that will go with your distributor cap.

Ya know, that sounds like a plan! Now I'm left with one more question. Why didn't I think of that?
Thank you for the input!
