The top of the intake should have the firing order, and you can call pretty much any parts house and they can print you a diagram on how to put them on.

SOURCE: FIRING ORDER FOR 2.6 V6

Chevrolet only used a 2.8 liter engine in that vehicle for that year, here is a diagram for the 2.8 liter engine and I hope that it helps you out.

Are you sure about the engine size?

DIAGRAM ON FIRE ODER 1999 TAHO 5.7 VORTEC MOTOR

Firing Orders
NOTE: To avoid confusion, remove and tag the spark plug wires one at a
time, for replacement.

If a distributor is not keyed for installation with only one orientation, it
could have been removed and installed improperly and then rewired. The new
wiring arrangement would maintain the correct firing order, but could change the
relative placement of the plug towers in relation to the engine. For this reason
it is imperative that you label all wires before disconnecting any of them.
Also, before removal, compare the current wiring with the accompanying
illustrations. If the current wiring does not match, make notes of the current
plug wire locations and orientation of the distributor cap.

1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
