I did a couple of searches...but didn't find what I wanted...:confused:
How are the cylinders numbered? I know the firing order... but not the number layout...where's 1, 2,... 3 ..etc.
Thanks, Architect

Standing corrected (for now) all the same according to Wikki. I don't always believe them.

It is bad enough that the other automakers do label them the same way.

I've built quite a few 5 liter Mustang engines and their numbered the same 1~4PS 5~8DS.

I thought all Ford motors were numbered like that and Chevys are like 2,4,6,8 on one side and 1,3,5,7 on the other...
