i hAVE an 89 camaro 5.0 tbi.i need to know the firing oder and i need a pic of where the #1 wire gos on the cap my car runs like **** because i dont know the firing order or were the first wire gos.help me out a pic will be wondeful to know were the first wire gos.my dis. cap only gos on one way help me!

 

Firing order is conveniently cast into the intake manifold 18436572, clockwise around the cap

The car comes from the factory with #1 at the front of the cap, just to the driver's side of straight ahead. However when people take out their distributor and put it back in, many are less than meticulous about where they put it back, since it will work in any of 8 places (they just move the plug wires around to make up for their lack of rigor); so if yours has been moved, it's impossible for anybody to even guess which one might be #1.

 

OKAY THEY TOLD ME TO PUT THE ENGINE IN TOP DEAD CENTER AND THEN I WILL KNOW WERE # 1 IS RIGHT?WHAT YOU #1 IS ON THE CAR FROM FACTORY WERE IS THAT?

 

Maybe this will help

 

that will help me alot but im going to put my enine on tdc and them i will know were #1 is at thanks alot guys

 

Unless you put it on #6 firing instead of #1 firing.
