I see on some models with that engine they were equipped with an electric fuel shut off solenoid on the carb. Does yours have one? If so does it get power with the key on does it click when disconnected and reconnected with the key on? How about when the starter is cranking the engine? Did you try running a jumper wire from the battery direct to the coil hot lead? You cleaned the spark plugs but what do they look like now after you have tried starting it? If they are rich fouled, black and sooty they need cleaned again or they will not fire properly. Use carb cleaner, wire brush and compressed air. Sounds like you have it close on timing or I do not think it would run even the little bit you described. Connect a test light to ground and hold the probe to the distributor terminal. With the key on does it light when the points are open and go out when they are closed? Does gas flow well OUT OF THE CARB BOWL DRAIN PLUG? Is the venturi in your carb? See 34 in the attached diagram. You have the valve cover off you should set the valve clearance.
