Compression test only at 90 psi max, timing chain off?

I did rotate the distr 180, still no luck... It is a brand new engine, never fired. I can try the gauge on my car. It is a brand new gauge though... I thought I had the dots lined up to each other at 12 o clock, but it has been several months and I am second guessing my self. I am going to order a tool to measure push rod length tonight from summit... I get fuel and spark otherwise... just no ignition...
