  Subject: Help! won't start after cam installation


  Just completed installing my autotech cams and new distributor, but the
damn thing won't start.

  Followed the directions to the letter, cam timing was on, engine timing
was on...made sure everything was re-connected (plug wires in 1342 order
CCW), but all it does it turn over. Rotating the distributor has no effect.

  There was one tiny pop during the first crank, but then nothing...

  It really seems that there's no spark at all or it's not being distributed
right. I don't know what to make of it. I'm 99% positive I assembled
everything properly. It was running fine before I started this, so i'm
reluctant to think it's the coil....

  I may try the old distributor for the hell of it...

  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!  Jeff
