That is the CORRECT WAY, Passenger side Out Hot, Driver side in COLD

It does matter, The cooler water going into the driver side cools the intake side of the rotor housing thus helping with detonation, and the the water turns in the rear iron and cools the exhaust side, this is all ready hot so the warmer water can still absorb the heat. If you ran it backward you would be pulling the heat from the exhaust and moving it to the cooler intake side thus heating the motor up more.
