1974 D300 360 fresh rebuild will not start
Poor PlantJesus is really confused now with all these different pictures and theories from everyone.
This does not have to be this hard, lets start over with the basic cam timing. This is the correct way to time it so that it will fire on #1 pictured below like you have it.
Cam at 12 O'clock
Crank at 12 O'clock
#1 up on compression stroke TDC
Now that it is properly in time, you drop in your distributor here so that the rotor points to the #1 spark plug wire and lock it down.
OK Cam timed, and distributor is timed. Now to deal with low compression.
Always want to have the choke pinned open and throttle plates open when doing your compression check so it can get the proper air into the cylinders for the test.
Pull coil wire out of distributor and ground it so the car will not start during compression test.
More on low commpression causes, on the next post if compression test yields low.
