MA leading and trailing questione.!!!

would the leading sparkplugs be the top one on either rotor housing or would leading sparkplugs be the ones on the front rotor housing. also is there a difference between the plug wires other than the cap color.

'L' is for lower, and 'T' is for top. 'L'eading, 'T'railing.

Trailing go on top of "both" rotors. Each rotor gets a trailing on top and a leading on the bottom.

Can't be too much simpler, there is an L or T printed on the plugs, and a L and T on the rotor housing next to the spark plug hole. Match them up and you're good to go. Won't go into a lengthy explanation, but just don't mix up the plug wires.
