Well IF the engine is truly coming up on TDC on the compression stroke and the distributor is opening the points to fir, than the marks on the flywheel mean nothing. The trouble is have you taken the valve cover off and made sure your actually coming up on the compression stroke??? The cam timing could be off and your not on the compression stroke. Also did you ever look at the flywheel mark before the rebuild??? Maybe the flywheel has been changed.
P.S. Do not get mad but are you on number one piston??? Just asking. I have over looked simple things myself.
Like the others have posted. If the piston is coming up on compression and the points are opening it will run regardless of what the flywheel marks say. You can mark the flywheel with a paint pen to where it is at TDC and time off that.
