Default EJ8 Wont start..

Whats up HT, I have a B20V swap in my EJ8. The head is mildly built and the block is stock, anyway its been running fine for months cranked it up last night and it ran fine went to it this morning and it wont crank. It turns over and will almost start but then dies off. Im getting fuel, spark is bright white (even tried another dizzy), and mechanical timing is dead on. Any idea where I should start from here?

Compression test checked

Cyl 1 - 150
Cyl 2 - 120
Cyl 3 - 90
Cyl 4 - 160

When I did a leak down on Cyl 3 the gauge went all the way up, so im pretty much narrowing it down to these valves. Any other opinion ron before I rip it apart?
