What did I do? Help?

This is insane.
Bump stopped piston. TDC is where it belongs.
No crossed ignition wires I checked twice but I never removed any to begin with just moved cap assembly away to remove dizzy.
I know about welding up the slots. I posted earlier the plate isn't even in it anymore.
Set crank at 10' BTDC on compression stroke. Set rotor pointing to #1. I have done this a million times before. Car starts fine then dial in timing. Not this time. Engine barely starts runs terrible coughing and dieseling until I crank the dizzy a ridiculous amount to smooth out. Timing reads approx. 25-30 ATDC. I know it sounds like I'm telling you all 2+2 equals 8. :BangHead:
I tried a spare dizzy with same issues.
I tried a different ECU.
I tried dizzy 180 out. Won't start and pops carb.
I reversed polarity of dizzy (Not that)
I've used 2 good timing lights One dial type one not.
Pick up and reluctor align with rotor pointing at #1 plug on cap.
Springs are in place.
Weights are in the slot.
VC in proper hole on plate.
I've yet to try a different cap and rotor but can't see it being the issue as it runs smooth.
I even tried hooking timing light to all wires to see if any of them would go to BTDC without success.
When running I can rev it up and timing will advance in the right direction and go to about 25-30 from 50 ATDC.
I would be scared to death to rev it up and try to set timing to 34 BTDC in fear of breaking it or bending a valve.
I drove it without the VC hooked up and runs great.
I will try and get my buddy over to help video to prove I'm not nuts.
