Get the engine to TDC. Take off the distributor cap and see which terminal the rotor is pointing to. that should be #1 cylinder. Then go around the distributor cap and the wires should follow the firing order in the direction of rotor rotation in the distributor.

I did and that confused me even more. It was not at #1 It was at about 3:30 if it was a clock. Where #1 is at about 6:30 . It should be at 6:00 but taking into the timing setting it was at 6:30.
I have finished redoing the wires. I came in the house to cool down before I go out and try to start it
