Help!!!, I replaced the head and am unable to get the car started. I checked and verified the timing marks, fuel and spark, all are good. I will check to see if the rotor is installed upside down and also the cam sensor plate is installed correctly today.I'll also try putting oil in the cylinders to improve compression today. The endine cranks fine, but it does not seem be firing in the cylinders. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

OK,
I got it started. Problem was the carnk timing was off a couple of noches on the belt.
I checked the timing when I put the belt on and even hand turned the engine 2X and everything was good.
Anyway, I'm happy that the car now runs
Thanks

Glad you got it going. 
I don't get it, how can it be that "everything was good" after hand cranking 2x, but actually everything was not good because it was off a couple notches?
