Is it normal for an engine shop to put a 302 cam in a 351W?

I know I have a 351W in my CR. Looking up the cam, it is a (Comp Cams P/N 31-242-3) ( grind FS XE268H-10).

The reason is that I am getting my engine back together (had to have head work done) and trying to get everything set and looked up the firing order in a manual and noticed that the firing order was incorrect for a 351. It is correct for a 255,302,429 & 460 but is incorrect for a 351 & 400.

I never pulled the plug wires off of the Dizzy cap so I am sure of the firing order and my cam sheet states the firing order is 15426378.

It was running fine before, other than pushing water out the overflow at a high rate.

I guess as long as it goes together and runs, what the heck.
