If you start with #1 cylinder, and rotate the engine 180� normally
(clockwise) for each cylinder, you'll have to go with the firing order
(1-4-3-2) and you'll be going back and forth between the right and the
left side of the engine.

However, if you start with #1 and rotate the engine "Counterclockwise"
180� for each cylinder it'll be 1-2-3-4.  That way you can do one side
(1&2) then the other side (3&4).
