    Default Firing order ?

    I picked up a 92 Supra ts6m and want to change out the protech ignition with a DUI system.
    I took a picture of the engine tag so that I would get the correct kit before I put it away and noticed the firing order on the tag reads 1 1 8 3 7 5 4 8 ? The model is PLD-PR-R12PT. I took a couple pictures knowing I would swap the ignition out, but forgot about the different motor rotations? . It does have the PCM 40a 1.23 to 1 transmission. The boat is not stored here where I live so I can't just step out and hit the starter and see what direction it turns.
    I would appreciate if anyone could translate the tag so I know the rotation ( and whether that is looking at the crank from the front or the flywheel from the rear?) and determine what that firing order is? I figured it was standard rotation (CCW left looking at the flywheel) and 1 3 7 2 6 5 4 8 ?
    I will try to upload a pic of the tag.

    The firing order for a 351w is 1-8-4-5-6-2-7-3

    Can you tell what rotation that is (right /left > which is standard?) 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 must be the other rotation firing order?
    I have not been able to upload the picture of the tag yet?
    Thanks for your help !!!

    I keep clicking on add an image, select the pic of the tag, hit load but get no image ?

    Thanks for the heads up! I did translate the tag to a left hand rotation ( I believe is standard) lower HP 351 with PCM 1.23 to 1 drive and a right hand prop. I think that would be the 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 firing order. Now I think I'm going with the DUI distributor ignition replacement for the protech.
