Firing order

Ok I just converted back over to an 88 f250 from something other then a <NOBR id=itxt_nobr_0_0 style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 100%; COLOR: darkgreen; FONT-FAMILY: inherit">ford</NOBR> and need help I've searched and just cant find a straight to the point answer

heres the run down. I'm rebuilding a 88 f250 5.0. I need to know the plug firing order and as dumb as this may seem is number 1 on drivers side or passanger side.
Dont flame to bad please and thanks in advance for the help

Welcome back from the dark side. If you're doing a complete rebuild consider adding a better than stock cam, the Comp cams 31-55-5 is EFI friendly and a healthy upgrade.
