440 wont start

if it a hydraulic cam then there is no problem with the valves adjustment, if it is a solid lifter cam then we have a problem
i'd aree but when i bring up the #1 cylender to tdc on comp stroke both valves are closed and i can move the push rods "spin them " easy with my finger tips i'm going to do a compression test even tho i took off 906 heads that where 88cc and put on 84cc eddys which should have up my compression
