How far apart did you have the engine during the rebuild? Any chance the valve timing is off? One tooth off would be enough to make it hard to start & run really poorly if you did manage to get it started. A quick check is to watch the rockers for #1 cylinder as it comes up on the exhaust stroke (not the compression stroke). The exhaust valve will close at the same time the intake valve opens. The transition from exhaust to intake should correspond to top dead center (check with the timing mark).

As others have said, check the basics one at a time. You need fuel, air, compression & spark in the right combination and at the right times.

Good luck,

Keith
