First welcome to FTE
now on the firing order, it's usually cast on the intake manifold if you still have the factory manifold. But if not, and you know which engine it is, look a little further down the forums and you find a forum for each of the engine types, and you should be able to find out the firing order for that particular engine in there, or post the question with the engine type and someone will be along to give you the firing order (be sure to include the year, as some engines changed firing orders)

ok thats the firing order for you engine, the cylinders are numbered 1-4 on the passangers side starting at the front and 5-8 drivers side, you need to find out where number 1 is on the dist then in a counterclockwise rotation put the wires on leading to those spark plugs that match that firing order.
Hope that makes sense.
