just rebuilt a b18c motor and put in jdm type r poistons, and i lined up the crank pully to the white line, and got the cams lined up where there supposed to be the ojnly way i can start the car is if i have the distributer retarded all the way back past where the bolt wont even screw in. I need some help with this!!!!!!

 

check your cam timing, sometimes they can be a bitch just a little movement can throw everything off.

 

Sounds like one tooth off syndrome. Those cams aren't lined up, sorry.
