The firing order of the Chevy 366 big block truck engine is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 Rotor turns clockwise. Click the link and you will see a diagram of a 1982 Chevy 350 V8 which is exactly the same as the 366.
It will be right behind the Distributor, and screewed into the top of the engine block. It will have a electric wire pluged into it.
If it is a black weather PAC connector comming out of the distributor it plugs into the one comming out of the firewall. If the one comming from the distributor is missing and there is only one comming out of the firewall and there is a vacuum advance on the distributor, someone replaced the distributor with an older style. They did this more than likely because those early computer ones were problematic, and hard to get working just right.
