What is the firing order for a Chevy 350 with RV camshaft?

The firing order for a Chevy 350 engine, regardless of the camshaft used, is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2.

This firing order is standard for all small-block Chevrolet engines, including those with RV camshafts. While the RV camshaft might change the engine's performance characteristics, it doesn't affect the firing order.

Here's a quick explanation of the firing order:

* 1: The number 1 cylinder fires first.

* 8: Cylinder number 8 fires next.

* 4: Then cylinder number 4 fires.

* 3: Followed by cylinder number 3.

* 6: Then cylinder number 6.

* 5: Then cylinder number 5.

* 7: Followed by cylinder number 7.

* 2: Lastly, cylinder number 2 fires.

Note: This firing order is for engines where the distributor is on the passenger side of the engine. If you have a distributor on the driver's side, the firing order will be reversed.
