I was initially curious if engine compression was ok engine cold after
it sat overnight. I assume you've checked that in spite of new heads
etc?


It's easy to make a fuel pump relay bypass jumper wire as shown in
Bentley manual. Engine cold after it sat overnight, turn on fuel pump
using jumper wire, listen to see if fuel is circulating through hoses
in engine bay, try starting engine.
