95 d1 heavy crank and won't start
I have a 1995 d1 with177000 miles on it. My little brother over heated the rover and the head gaskets went bad. When I would crank oil would come out of the area where the cylinder head meets the block. So I took of the heads sent them to get resurfaced cleaned and with new Valve rubbers. I checked for slipped liner but everything seemed fine I even moved the Pistons around to clean and check for any abnormalities. I got the heads and new gaskets and torqued everything to 15 pounds then 90° then another 90° using the correct sequence. After I was done putting everything back together I cranked the vehicle and the crank sounds sluggish and I also have a puff sound coming out of the exhaust. The rover won't start what so ever. I have fuel at the rail and spark at the distributor cap and spark plugs. Any ideas? Do in have timing issues? Or do I have to take off the whole distributor and set it to piston number 1?
Any help would be greatly appriciated!

The distributor was not moved but I did manually move the Pistons to clean them. My battery is weak I took it to O'Reillys to get it checked and came out bad. Today I'm going to try and get a good battery. Thanks for the reply. Hope everything works fine.
