kruleworld Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 want correct firing order for your next engine, save this image for reference neat reference chart, it is.
rmvw guy Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Thanks Walter, this will come in handy when I become a detail artist. Lol. This is good stuff, really!
SuperStockAndy Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Wow, I always thought they'd be the same for all V8s. Just can't figure out how they'd be different. Got some research to do Thanks for the chart!
Uncle Keith Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Anyone check the flat head Ford firing order, 15863372. It should be 15486372, the same as the y-block Ford. I guess MSD doesn't feel the need to fire number 4 on a flattie. Apparently no proof reading. Have A Great Day! Edited April 23, 2012 by Uncle Keith
Chuck Most Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 I have this same chart in a drawer near my workbench- the Flathead order has been corrected, and I've even added a few crudely-drawn diagrams for engines not shown on the chart.
moparmagiclives Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Wow, I always thought they'd be the same for all V8s. Just can't figure out how they'd be different. Got some research to do Thanks for the chart! It's all related to the cam timing Andy, but for s and g's, notice how not all the brands number the cylinders the same. If you were to number them all alike, a lot of them would run the same order physically on the block. Something interesting to look at, search a Chevy 5,7 swap cam.
crazyjim Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 I have a similar chart that Fatkidd gave me. In addition to the firing order at the cylinders, it also gives the location on the distributor.
KevinMoparFord Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 One of the rotations of the Mopar engines are wrong. Big block distributors rotate counter clockwise, hemi's too. Small clocks rotate clockwise.
