Since mine don't match I guess I don't know, though that pic in the
Practical Hints sure looks tidy.

Exact orientation of the dizzy depends of course of which tooth on the
gear you end up on when you slip it in -- but generally you're trying
to get the rotor pointed at #1 spark plug at TDC.
I like to make my wires fairly short -- that way there is only one way
they can all be connected (i.e. wires #1 & #2 can only reach their
correct plugs, then #3 can only go to the 3rd plug and that just
leaves #4 to hook up). Almost foolproof.
I think those little straps holding a group of the wires may have been
original but not 100% sure.
On the TR4 the coil had to be mounted with the CB wire having the long
reach as the SW wire wasn't long enough to get to the far side of the
coil. On the TR3 it made more sense to mount the coil with the CB
post forward and looks better too I think.
