rebuilt Cylinder head now wont start, what next Options

[csscza]

just like it says I got a reman cylinder head and changed all gaskets put everything back together and now wont start. So anybody have an idea as to what I address next? This is my sons car and I really want to get it going. Thanx in advance.
Could it be timing? camshaft position? Im pretty sure I got all the timing marks lined up. Distributor position? The search begins.

Ok that's good, maybe if you are unsure of the timing marks you could remove top cover, turn it to TDC then take a picture of the cam sprocket and post it for confirmation. It seems like if you have spark and fuel, then it would have to be a valve or ignition timing issue causing this.


Also, I would check compression all cylinders should be above 170. This would tell you if the valve timing is off. To get a basic feel for it if you dont have a compression gauge try turning it over with a wrench at the crankshaft pulley and see if you feel the the cylinders building pressure.

again; is this a 94-95 or a 96-99? The two ignition systems are infact different.
