This will depend on where the distributor drive gear was installed.
So to be sure, remove the front spark plug and have someone turn the  
engine over a little at a time while holding your finger on the plug  
hole. WHen you have pressure your are coming up on number one  
cylinder firing. Then look at the timing marks and bring the motor up  
to top dead center. Now look at the distributor and note where the  
rotor is pointing in relation to the cap and that will be where the  
number one plug wire goes.

Then install wires in counter clockwise  direction and the firing  
order is 1 5 3 6 2 4

While you are at it be sure and check the point gap is should be .015
