When a car cranks but doesn't fire, it's one of three basic things:
A. No ignition
B. No fuel
C. Both
We used to just pull a plug out, set it against the block with the lead on, crank the motor to see if it'll spark.
This car is carburetted so it's easy to check if fuel is getting to the engine. Have some one pump the accelerator and look in the carb to see if fuel is squirting into carb.
Go from there.
And just because he replaced all that stuff on his engine, that don't mean it works or he did it right either.
