What, a mistake in a Chiltons? Unpossible! Actually, the pattern must be the same for the firing order to remain the same 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. Like you said, start with #1 in the same spot and follow in the same order.

No, but re-gap to .045 with HEI.

Congrats, you're gonna love not needing to change points all the time!
