I need to cut the spark plug wires to the proper sizes. These sizes were the same from 1929 to at least 1933. Which terminal on the distributor cap should be number one if everything is in the correct place? Thank you, Joe

I have always considered the plug wire next to the tab on the bottom of the cap or slot in the edge of the distributor to be the NO. 1.
