Personally I've set them counter clockwise and also clockwise. I find it easier to go counter because one and two are on the same bank so I can do that side, fit the cover then work on three and four. Makes no difference as long as your TDC on whatever cylinder you're doing right?

As Aidan says. The firing order is 1.4.3.2.
So you start tdc number one, then you can either clockwise rotate 180 for number 4 etc or counter clock wise for 2 etc
Valve valve setting you turn counter clockwise
Set to tdc set number one 180, anticlockwise set 2 etc etc
Bentley says clockwise
There’s more than one procedure, anticlockwise is easier I think
