Barracuda woes :(

My 1969 Barracuda will not run. It has spark and fuel. However it does not start. The distributor is the El Cheapo off of EBay that is HEI style. I had the distributor installed for two days and the motor ran beautifully. On the third day it just wouldn't start. I have a trunk mounted battery. The cable is grounded to the frame. Motor is grounded to frame. I pulled number one plug and it is getting a pinkish spark, not a sharp blue spark. Holley 600 is definitely getting fuel. The timing always ends up in same place with rotor pointing towards number 5 piston. It doesn't point at number one. The rotor does rotate when cranking. As far as I can tell compression is fine. The oil pressure climbs to 60 pounds when cranking. I am at a total loss here. The car was running great as stated before. On the third day with new cheap red cap hei style distributor it wouldn't start. Please help.
