I mean really checked the timing. It's entirely possible that the timing chain had jumped before and the ignition timing was reset. Even if you got the cam...
Ya know what? That's a great possibility! I hadn't even thought to consider that this may be a points/condenser system. Hmm... I guess we'll see... Mike....
