installed new MSD cap/rotor/wires and plugs now doesn't start

So I feel like an idiot because of something so easy going so wrong, hah. I got everything together, wired the engine up just as the Haynes manual stated and I get a few sputters when turning over. Before it started up on the first turn. Gah damn my mechanical skills! I think the plugs might be in the dissy wrong but I don't know how to tell. The only reference I really have is from the book and I was a moron and didn't write down the order they were in before I took off the original ones.
