Default Car Wont Start !!!NEED HELP!!! Dizzy just replaced.

Ive been pulling my hair out trying to fix this problem. The other night i put my dizzy on 180 out and yes it damaged the teeth and bent them that go into the end of the camshaft because im an idiot and it was dark out and couldnt see much.

Well today i got another dizzy(aftermarket) with cap and rotor button. Also the car has new factory Honda plug wires and new NGK plugs. The car has compression, has spark, has fuel, and all, and it will not run. I dont believe the timing jumped at the belt, dont think it would just from putting a dizzy in 180 out as the dizzy still spins, its not like it locks the cam down to make it jump. Also i have tried a virgin P28 that is supposedly in working condition but it is for an automatic and just throws a automatic shift lock code 19 and thats it. Other than that im not throwing any codes.

Would anybody have any clue as to what is going on with this as this is my DD and i need it back on the street. By the way it is swapped with a 94 B18C GSR. It ran before i put the dizzy in 180 out and now it wont run at all but it has spark, fuel, and compression.

Can somebody help me out?

How did you NOT notice it was 180 off? It doesn't fit one way, One way it does. You must have been tightening those 3 bolts forever lol

Well it was dark out and it looked like it was flush from above but yea, obviously it wasnt. Ill admit, as many times as ive messed with honda dizzys, this is the first time it has ever happened to me.

Could the timing have possibly jumped or not from that, i wouldnt think so because its not like the camshaft stopped turning causing it to bind and the belt to jump.

If you figure it out or whatever please let me know as i dont think the timing jumped but i guess its always a possibility.

Im checking the timing on it later on this afternoon just to make sure of that.

I checked the timing today and it was off by about 2 teeth. I reset the timing and car runs great.
