if the starter won't even turn over, your looking at starter, battery or wiring to start with worst case engine is seized but dout it (use a nineteen and turn the crank you will be able to figure that one out). If it won't fire check your compression, fuel, double check with the timing. Make sure when it jumped timing it didn't clack the valves. really with the lack of information you give I would take it to a shop.

I think I get what you mean, like it fires on a couple cylinders but wont fully fire enough to keep rotation going with out starter, Check timing and ignition timing. easiest possible at this point. Make sure your spark is hot not too week. and that you have good fuel pressue, not that you just have fuel or spark make sure the engine has enough. Run a compression check this will be the easiest way to tell you if you have a serious problem on your hands. (also migh want to run through your electrical two if everything els looks good, but I am guessing from info/or lack of you will find a severe compression problem) this is the case buy a new motor/or a z6 head and find a good shop!

I agree, If you have it just doen't even give yourself the headache of trying to figure this out. Just swap it, ohh might I suggest GSR head on that!
