Default Enya 90 4C Help

Hello,

Just recently got a hand me down, custom made plane with an Enya 90 4C engine. Engine needed some work (ie. blown head gasket, valve clearances and lubing) and I think I got it compressing enough to start. I have 2 main problems. Which way does the prop spin? When facing the planes, (prop first, tail far), and turn it clockwise, I get great compression and the prop springs back when I spin it, counter-clockwise I get less compression and very little spin back. From the few videos of people starting their planes I've found, it looks like they're all turning counter-clockwise???

Second, facing the plane again, and lookings at the rockers, is the intake valve on the left and the exhaust valve on the left?

I know these are very "no duh" questions for most of you.

Thanks!
