Distributor and plug wires

Can you fine folks confirm that this is the right plug wire orientation for my 860? Please forgive my ignorance, flamesuit on, etc
Thanks!

Yes no and maybe. Last time I messed with a 860 some one had pulled the distributor out and then dropped it back in with out making sure #1 was in the right place so I had to move the wires around to make it work.

Rotation correct, firing order correct.
Where #1 is may vary depending on distributor installation.
Line up the timing marks on compression stroke and see where
the rotor points. Put #1 plug wire on that distributor cap nipple.
Or put the distributor back in per the book if you like once you
get the engine on TDC of compression stroke.
