ok, that sounds not too bad for a start.

have you connected the ht leads in the correct order and aligned the distributor correctly? it's quite easy to be 180 degrees out.

as a quick check, align your crank pulley before tdc just before the rotor arm is due at the marker on the dizzy body. with the ignition on and all plug leads removed, check that as you move towards tdc, no.1 sparks at the right time. rotate the crank half a turn and no. 3 should fire. another half turn and no. 4 should fire and another half turn for no. 2
