Jan, just a comment but on your notes it looks like 'front' written at the top of the page, if that is indeed the front of the engine then the uppermost RH cylinder (your current #8) is the #1 cylinder and vice-versa in normal terms. Not critical or personal notes, but if you take it somewhere and talk to #1 cylinder an engine builder will likely assume #1 in the standard orientation.
