The firing order is the same for all small block Chevys. The cylinders on the driver side are odd, #1 is at the front. Passenger side are even, #2 is at the front.

If it is a factory intake manifold the firing order is probably cast on the intake surface in front of the carb.

Find or establish the #1 position on the dizzy cap and move around the cap in a clockwise direction connecting wires from the dizzy to the cylinders in firing order.

Keep in mind that if the dizzy has been removed/replaced in the past, #1 may not be in that location. But that can be checked easily.
