you did say it wouldn't fire on starting fluid. So that means compression and/or timing. I stI'll stand on previous comments, but humor me this: Like nm9... said, Roll engine over, in normal clockwise rotation( viewed from front) until the mark you "think" is TDC on dampenet is APPROACHING TDC on cover, stop about 8 to 10 degrees on timing cover BEFORE it reaches zero. Make sure both #1 rockers are on base circle of cam. Pop dist. cap off and, if necessary, rotate dist. body AGAINST normal rotor rotation(normal rotation is CW, so you rotate the dist body CCW) until the reluctor meets the pickup(Mopar electronic), or whatever triggers the MSD dist. Snug up the dist hold down enough so it can't accidentally turn, then place cap on body noting where the rotor is pointing, that should be #1 terminal on the cap. If it isn't pointing directly at the terminal, you may have to pull the dist. and using a bigass screwdriver rotate the dist drive shaft a tooth(it's really not that hard to do). then reinstall dist and repeat lining up trigger mechanism and rotor sequence. Do this until you're satisfied it's correct.
