Default Re: Trouble shoot 1950 8Ba initial start up Help

Car has been converted to Pertronix with the new proper coil . New wiring harness and entire car is now 12V
Going with compression test today and going to try and find tdc as if the timing gear had no slash or dot. also going to check and see if dist module eye is aligned properly as well.

Also wanted to mention that rings were replaced and are new. Cylinders were not bored but honed.
Guides and seals were replaced. valves reseated with compound by hand, cam and lifters were not replaced. Everything dropped back in original holes and positions. Did not check valve seats as they are not the adjustable type and really nothing changed. That was an assumption on my part i guess
