Yes, I am well aware that there are no original timing marks, but you say you are checking the timing, so must be checking them against some added mark. The question was, was the added mark checked when you dissembled the engine this last time? It is easy to get the mark off using a dial indicator IMO. I would start by rechecking the mark. It about has to be mismarked or a distributor problem. Two distributors both having the points not functioning seems odd, but anything is possible.
