The firing order is 1-2-4-3.
I believe that the outboard pole is #1, but the distributor can be rotated (and the instructions for Intigo Electronics electronic ignition system suggest it for some reason). If you want to check, remove the spark plugs and rotate the engine. When the # cylinder is at Top Dead Center, the distributor rotor will be pointing at the correct pole.
