I would verify the distributor can trigger the coil, by spinning the distributor by hand to see what the spark quality is like.

Need the coil lead set up with a 1/2 inch gap to ground, with the ignition on.

Then set the engine at 10-15 BTDC, set the rotor in line with NO.1, noting the reluctor trigger etc.

We are also trying to start an engine that has not run since it was built in the 80s, so some of the valves could be stuck in the guides etc.
