crank can't be 360 degrees out, there is no cam sensor, the dizzy works off cam and is crank independant.
ia can't think of anything to help without being in fron tof car, but clearly there is no compression, try setting crank to tdc and the cam so that full lift of the inlet valve is at full lift when the crank is set at 104 degrees ish, then turn by hand.
very peculiar this, especially since the thing ran before a belt change nad not after.
at TDC the inlet valve on cyl one should be opening, if not already started just before tdc.
sometimes on engines without timing marks i've had to use dial gauges, but a rough estimate of valve one just opening with cylinder at top is a good guide, if it's then still rough, just move the belt along a tooth, but check by turning twice by hand first for contact.
