Default Preplexing Issue

Well, I just put a new set of engine and rod bearings in my GenV. The oil clearances checked out and everything seemed good.

I started the car, and the OP was good and it idled just great. I let it idle for about an hour. Purrfect. Then I went to drive it around the block and it cut off while I was pulling out. It just plain stopped. No strange noise, just an end to the combustion it seemed.

The only things I know right now are that the crankshaft is still spinning when I hit the starter, and that it seems like a no-spark or no-fuel situation. There isn't any chuffing or other attempts to combust it seems.

Anyone seen anything like this before?

Yikes...check for the usual fuel, spark and compression.

Anyone want to start a pool on the number of bent valves?
