I would bet good money your timing is out. You may need to line everything up TDC for #1 cylinder compression stroke and then reinstall the distributor with #1 terminal on the distributor cap lined up with the rotor, remember as you install it the rotor will move so be sure to account for that when you put it in the engine. I normally mark the position of the distributor as well as the rotor location whenever I remove one from an engine to make reassembly easier.
