Sorry guys I've been in Thailand for the last week. I'll definitely be working on it when I get home in about two weeks. In case you're wondering Thailand is amazing!

Looking back though this thread and the previous one, I don't see where you have confirmed that the rotor is turning when the engine spins. Have you done that? One of the few things that can break inside a flathead is the fiber timing gear. They generally don't just slip, they either work or they don't. You will still get some compression with a broken gear, but not the correct amount. I don't see where you've done a compression test either, but maybe I missed it?
