Honestly, I don't think it matters as far as a pattern goes. I would put both pistons onto one arm of the crank before you torque them down (like #1 and #5) Also, if your rods are stock, my machine shop told me not to torque them down to more than 25 pounds. The stock rods have little tiny cap bolts that will stretch easy. Anyway, good luck with your engine, I still want to see pics of the pink engine!!!
