Flathead 6 firing order

Hi Guys:
Sorry I do not get as much time as I'd like on this forum, but.....
What's the firing order for a '48 F-1 with a flathead 6? I think it's 1-5-3-6-2-4, but I'm not sure.
I'm just trying to get mine to be a driver for the summer to tow a little trailer with one of my Crosley's aboard to the mid week shows here at the Jersey shore!
Thanks!
