2.3L Ford OMC

Gentlemen,

I have a 1987 VIP with the 2.3L Ford OMC Cobra, I have an issue with the ignition and I don't have the funds to switch it to electric just yet so I put the old distributor back on and the points and everything but I think the timing is off. Questions:

What is the firing order?
What is the location of the #1 cylinder

Any other advice on this engine would be great!!

Thanks

I have the same setup and if it is the mallory distributor, be sure the advance weights under the breaker plate are working right ( hold dist and turn rotor with other hand ) let go of rotor and it should snap back. I had this happen to me three times, each time mallory sent me a new dist. come to find out from a mallory tech that i needed a different weight setup and that fixed it
