Doesn’t want to start after tune up

Dear Pantera brothers,

I bought #3331 18 years ago (as I’ve posted on here) and she’s been doing great. She was becoming hard to start a few weeks ago so I figured it was time for a tuneup. I’ve only put 20,000 miles on and this is the third time I give her a tuneup. She has a restored original engine when I bought her and has dual point ignition with a 650 cfm Edelbrock.

When I bought her I did the dwell and gap adjustment and determined they needed a 0.019” gap. She’s run great all these years. Like usual, I did the sparks, wires, points, distributor cap and rotor. Fuel filter and hoses. Nothing exotic, I made no changes to anything else, just like I did before. I finished and now she pops but will not start. This didn’t happen the other times.  Any help would be IMMENSELY appreciated 🙏!!!!

So frustrating since right now is the perfect whether to take her out here in NC.

Thank you,

William
