I need the firing order for twin 270 crusaders...350 smblks, clockwise & counter rotation...

Thanks

Check on the block itself - sometimes it's stamped on there or mounted on a small plate.

Still not sure how to translate that? a diagram would be better as ive never done this...

[flynny7]

Clockwise rotation Looking from front (waterpump) to back (Dist.) L/h side 2 (w/p) 4 6 8 R/h 1 3 5 7.
Bring Motor to TDC on 1 and look at rotor.

Is the counter-rotation done in the transmission on your boat?

Crusaders since about 1994 achieve counter-rotation in the transmission rather than the engine.

Thanks bro! i tried a search but couldnt come up with the diagram.

so the only thing left that is unclear to me is what is #1 on the dist cap?, the dist cap isnt numbered.... or does it not matter where you start on the dist cap, as long as the order is sequential?

I know this must be a stupid question, just have never lost count b4....

Thanks again...

good question I always assumed it wasnt done in the trans....they are '87's

Bring 1 to tdc look at rotor..thats 1 on cap...Seacat is right check rotation of both dists.

Tdc? = top of dist cap??
i think i can figure it out from here Thanks bud.

tdc+top dead center. Did you see if the firing order was cast in the intake manifold?

[Victory 1]

thats just it the cap when in position and screwed in each side has no top dead center, their holes are off set and start left or right of dead center....Iam being thick here? lol , im assuming i would start to the 1st hole right of top dead center...

On the '87's counter-rotation was done in the engine.
