OK so I swapped out my HEI distributor today in my 73 Camaro and realized that even though I used a marker and marked all the plug wires I didn't note where they were on the cap before I took them off the old cap...:pat:

Does anyone have a diagram of the wiring order?

Find #1 TDC, and see where in the cap the rotor is pointing, then wire it 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2

Hope this helps!

#1 on the cap should point to #1 cylinder IE. driver side first cylinder.

That's what I thought, I'll pull the plugs and rotate the engine by hand. Finding TDC is always fun...
