Default 302 ford distributor question

I'm working on my friend's 69 mustang. The engine is at TDC now, I need to know where the rotor button needs to be facing for #1 piston so I can drop it in and get everything ready to fire it. Thanks!

Cool, this will get me pointed in the right direction so to speak. From the manual I was reading I'm guessing the #1 piston is on the front passenger side as opposed to the driver side like a Pontiac?
