Firing order is: 1-5-3-6-2-4
Rotation is CW
The location of #1 is critical on a PIP distributor, it SHOULD be marked on the cap. If it is not, the electronics pigtail comes out of the distributor immediately beneath post #4. Post #1 is the one just to the front of it.

Cute --- now fill in your signature with that explaination for the "ihatefords" name so you don't get cr*p forever!
I don't know what PIP stands for either, but curious......

36 to old
24 just right

timing may be off a few degrees (it will still run)\
A lil trick until you can get a timing light on it, Loose the distributor assembly until it turns (but not to loose, just so it it is snug) and turn it until it runs smoother then tighten it back up
