The fireing order is 1-2-3-4-5-6. But I forget which way the distributer spins, IIRC clockwise.

Yep...clockwise and 7:00 is correct for 90% of the cars out there, but not neccessarily...It really depends where top dead center is alligned with the distributor. I've attached a graphic, but again, the cap is marked for 90% of the cars...you mileage may vary.
