firing order 1997 f250 HD 5.8 (351)

HELP!
I pulled all the spark plug wires to change them out thinking my Haynes manual was correct, but it seems it isn't... anybody have the correct firing order for this engine, and which terminal on the cap is #1 cylinder?Thanks for your help!

Excuse me for acting like a crack head...the last vehicle in which I replaced the wireset, the rotor turned clockwise...oops! not with Ford. Thanks quicklook2. I must be getting old
Anyway, it runs like a champ now, with 203K miles
