have you tested the coil?..if thats good..check the dizzy..if thats good..then id suggest going throu the timing again..if i remember rite..your crank angle sensor is inside the dizzy so if timing is off by just 1 tooth..depending on what cam side....it may run but run like crap..or wont run at all...

I have seen this happen on my friends. Turned out one of the wires on the harness was about to come apart. Its was on the plug going into the dizzy. But also your coil could be going bad. Try using a friends dizzy and if it starts well atleast you know where the problem is.
