Motor not running

Okay, so I just had my heads rebuilt on my 360. I put everything back together this weekend and tried starting it. Basically the motor will crank but it won't turn over. Am I looking at a timing issue or is it something else? Any help would be great, I just want to get this thing running!

I'm assuming it is turning over but not firing. Did you remove the distributor? It's easy to get it in wrong. Is you firing order correct? Are you getting gas? See if your accelerator pump is squirting a stream into the barrel. Anyhow, if it won't fire, it's either spark or gas, just a matter of determining which.

Well I know I'm getting gas, and yes i did remove the distributor so I'm guessing I just put it in there wrong or something, I'll just mess with it until she fires.
