Hi, I am looking for cylinder numbering for my '49 Cadillac. I have got some literature but can not find it (just found the distributor numbers).  '48 numbers are from left front backward 1-3-5-7. Right front backward 2-4-6-8. Same on the '49?
Thanks!

Luca,

The cylinder numbering (not the firing order) on a '49 is left front backward 1-3-5-7 and right front backward 2-4-6-8, the same as a '48.
