Firing order will be 13726548. If you can't identify #1 post on the distributor cap put Cyl #1 on TDC of the compression stroke(both valves closed) and whatever post the rotor points to that's #1.

I also have a 1979 with a 300 6cyl been having lots of trouble with the carter carb. Is there another single barrel carb that would work the best?
