Re: 1970 Nova Marine 24 HELP !

Are they inboard or I/O.......
Should be 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8......For standard rotation.....
I believe the other firing order is 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8.....​

They are inboards, I don't know if that makes a dff, all I know is 1 motor turns clockwise and the other counter clockwise

Yeah it matters.....
Do they have any ignition wires at all?.....
The standard side will rotate cw ( bump the starter) while looking at the front of the engine...
It should be 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8......
The rh rotation should rotate ccw when bumped......
That one should be 1-8-4-5-6-2-7-3........
Both rotors will turn ccw.....
Remember Ford....
4-8
3-7
2-6
1-5
Hope this helps....​
