Glad to hear you straightened it out. Didn't a "Cam Card" come with the cam when you bought it?? It should have the correct firing order on it.

Vamp89,

You do know that there are two firing orders?? [15426378] and [13726548]. The later is the 351W/302HO firing order. The 302 went to the 321W firing order when the GT came back with a 351W marine cam in it. That is why you can't always go by what the intake manifold has on it. The cam dictates the firing order.

Don't feel dumb. You're only dumb if you don't learn from mistakes.

Now you know and I bet "You'll never forget this one again"

yep, the 86+ or 85? 302 h.o. pretty much a 351 except for deck height and crank stroke....pistons probaly vary from flatops and domes and what not.
