Car is dead
Also if you can get down there to see there is a mark for the locator pin on the pulley put that straight up and the timming mark should be on 0 if it is not then you need a new harmonic balancer 100 or so $ Retarded timming and no exhaust flow will make egts go sky high

If you are lucky maybe the crank pulley (aka harmonic balancer is just giving you lousy readings because it has started to separate). Sure fire (easy) way to tell if your balancer is FBAR, is to stick something longish (dowel) into cylinder #1 and rotate it til it is at TDC - Look at your timing groove and see if the marks are at TDC.
That's the funny thing...I did that and it all checked out....2 full turns and the mark was back at the TDC.

Engines only need 4 things to run.
-Fuel/air (check injectors/fuel pump, try a shot of carb clean to try to start it, ect.)
-Compression (even 100 psi will run an engine)
-Spark (enough for 1/2" gap minimum)
-The above mentioned occuring in the right order.
Start checking the systems one by one untill you find which one you don't have.

OK so the short nose crank problem accured. The Kew way was messed up and so was the terminal on the crank. I am going to try to fix the problem with some JB weld. I heard some people were successful with that. But I know that its time for a new crank....yay!!!!
Thanks for the Help!!
