BTW, is it a NA engine? 77 might be. You did adjust for an NA engine if it is, right? But 2k out still shouldn't keep it from running.
At this point I am figuring that has to be the case. I aim to do a compression test tomorrow, otherwise sometime next week. While I am at it, I will get the gauge and measure the timing chain.

It is an NA engine and I did .10mm and .30mm, it is totally in spec at this point after being checked ~5 times. In all honesty, the valves were not spinning wildly; I will keep them from spinning the next time I check the clearances in the hope that will make it start again.

A side effect of trying to start it a couple times. If the problem persists after I am done with compression testing, I will record it again with a stronger battery and no leaf blower in the background.
