Ok here's a quicky of what to set your engine up to.

set the crank to TDC aligning the marks up. (make sure #1 piston is at the top)

align the cam pulleys up at 110 each.

align the distributor up so the rotor is pointing at the #1 cap wire.

make sure all the wires are clean/ plugs / coil / etc, (dirt will kill a contact.)

if you have 2 to 4 pounds fuel pressure and the rest of the engine is decent. carbs / compression etc it should start.

Sometimes if you have issues try cranking the engine over in a dark area and watch to see if you get sparking in places that should'nt be.
