Hello again, need some help please.

First, double-check both your valve timing and your ignition timing. Either or both significantly off would cause a no-start issue. Then, check for fuel and injector pulsing.

I agree with Busted Knuckles. If you had taken your distributor out during the project, your ignition timing could be off. I've made the mistake once of putting my dizzy in 180? out, took me a few days to figure that one out.

Alright, I appreciate the little bits of feedback so far, but I am pretty sure the timing is good.. however here are a couple videos of what my friend and I have so far.

This first one is showing you what we've done to get the timing right.

this second one is the vehicle trying to turn over but not getting anywhere..
Maybe there's something I'm not hearing that others can point out.. but. I'm not sure.

Alright, I don't think its a timing issue anymore- that all looks okay thanks to your videos.

What have you done to confirm you're getting fuel? Have you tried starting with the B+ and FP pins connected in the diagnostic box?
