c/ clockwise?
Does the firing order on my distributor cap go counter clockwise?
I have them running clockwise and it runs like crap. I've rechecked the wires about a dozen times. made sure all the wires click on the plugs ect,ect,ect. If this is the case, I waisted about two hours last night....... I thought for sure that my distributor went clockwise when I turned over the motor clockwise.

Ron,
Put it in a forward gear (like 4th or 5th) take off the dist cap, push the car forward a little, and you see which way the rotor turns. You won't have to memorize that it turns clockwise. Rex

Yes the SC has a different geared dizzy and spins the opposite way to virtually every other engine series...

Now that we solved that, let's hope that a DAPO didn't screw up the dizzy indexing, I've seen em where the #1 mark was 180 out
