Bob,
Do not sweat your mistake. I did it myself not long ago when installing my new manifold and carb.
The diagram in the factory shop manual is wrong. The firing order is :
1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8
If you are looking at the original dizzy from the back the hold down clip at 7:00 o'clock
is #1. #3 is at 6:00 etc. going counter clockwise.
Hope this helps.
