Which one is the #1 Cylinder on a Model A?

This is probably a dumb question, and I think I know the answer, but can anybody tell me which cylinder is the #1 Cylinder on my Model A One Ton Truck? My common sense tells me that it is the one on the front end (radiator end) of the engine. I'm new to this hobby so I don't want to take anything for granted. I'm in the process of installing an electronic ignition kit on this truck and the instructions with the kit tell me to start the process with the Number One cylinder at TDC. They also talk about pulling the stud out of the front housing and using it to find TDC. Again, I think I have this figured out, but I'd like to confirm it with somebody so that I don't mess something up with the timing. Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated.
