Well it turns out the timing was off a tooth, I re-did the timing

Hopefully its right this time, does this look correct #6 is tdc

 

Is that a new chain, It looks loose?

 

ya its new, i didnt torque down the 3 bolts yet

 

Yeah, looks like you've got it right. But, spin the engine over a time or two by hand, and see if they still align.

 

Generally helps if you keep the response in the original thread, or at least include a link to your original thread so people know how the problem has progressed:

Did you check Shoebox's timing set animation:

update : I rotated the engine 2 full times and the dots line up fine as in the pict. I guess i will see how it works, just waiting til tomorrow for the wp and timing gaskets to get here

 

that's what I thought

 

well it turns out brand new opti was bad, swaped with another and it fired the 1st shot
