Unhappy DISTRIBUTOR WIRING/DIRECTION

I need help with distributor wiring diagram and spin direction. I'm getting conflicting info. '71 Lemans Sport 350. i'm being told different coded distributors spin either clockwise and counter clockwise and that the plug wires should be but on distributor cap according to the way it spins. Can someone set this straight for me? Thanks in advance.

All Pontiac V8s spin the distributor CCW, no exceptions.
