My reply is later than late, but for anyone reading... the crank timing might be off (crankshaft not being aligned with its own pulley). This happens when somebody puts on the pulley and forgets or drops the wood-ruff key. I have had this... cam looked two teeth off (though it wasn't since it later turned out the crank pulley not being aligned) and when I put the cam to "0 teeth off" it would not run.
