compression test... it'll let you know if you are sealing up like you should. If your cams were off it wouldn't have very good compression

well three hours later here i am... i have been out in the garage wrenching on the thing.... i reset the cam gears, and cams, now i am %100 sure that the timing is on! the car finnaly turned over but yet again DID NOT start... do you think that the computer might have got shorted out and mabye thats wh it wont run? i did not do a compression test because i do not have somebody to turn the key, lol its 3am... i am going to see if i am getting any spark, and i will also check the compression in the morning... will keep yall posted... if anybody else has any ideas, or has had something similar happen to them please let me know...

hey man I added you on msn, I got your pm last night but I was busy so I couldn't talk. I've heard of ppl having the EXACT same prob that you have and their timing is 180* off so mabe your timing might be 180* off.

I would check all the plugs and stuff, they could have gotten flooded since you were having both cams open at the same time

here is the story... really embarissing but hey.... it happens... so on the end of the exhaust camshaft where the CAS reads there is a little plastic cap, that i totaly forgot to take off my old cams and therefore i was not getting spark because the CAS was not reading shit... lol
