Default plug wires, firing order, coil packs HELP!

2000 discovery 2 v8

as im sure many of you know, and i know...to replace one plug wire at a time, not so true on the disco 2, my knuckles are all blistered up. heres what i did, i removed all the plug wires all at once. i know the firing order is 1,8,4,3,6,5,7,2. i also have the diagram in my owners manual.

diagram of cylinders
pass side / drivers side from back to front look at engine
8 / 7
6 / 5
4 / 3
2 / 1

from left to right where the plug wires go
2,3,4,7,8,5,6,1

heres my problem, the coil packs are perfect squares, 4 that go up high and 4 that go down low. the diagram in the owners manual shows them going straight across and not 4 on top and 4 on the bottom.

CAN ANYONE TELL ME THE TOP 4 FIRING ORDER (FROM PASSENGER SIDE TO DRIVERS SIDE LOOKING AT THE ENGINE FROM THE FRONT) AND THE BOTTOM 4 (FROM PASSENGER SIDE TO DRIVERS SIDE LOOKING AT THE ENGINE FROM THE FRONT)
i hope i explained the problem i have pretty well, but rt now the truck is sitting out side plz help ASAP!!!

Do yourself a favor and pull the upper intake, it is actually quicker that way.

the best view is always from the point of no return and you only ever have too much fuel when you are on fire.
