Need insight on my intake problem...I had blown intake gaskets on this 94` 350 ci ...i replaced them with new fel-pro set,and this project did include all of the normal removal procedures including the distributor,which was carefully marked for timing...sealant was placed on the head side of gasket but not on intake side...everything went back together ok,but now the truck will not start...since then i have checked for spark and fuel,and have both,but i also pulled all plugs and found water in one and fuel in another but that was it.the motor tries to start but not anything more than a slight roll....cranks fine..i have also loosened the distributor and turned slightly in both directions and motor acts the same....am curious if maybe there is some issues with the intake sucking air or if the timing is off really bad.....any help is good help right now as i have plenty of time,but out of ideas.......

i'm thinking the timing is off in the truck. It sounds kinda like a problem i had in my truck a few months ago. My distributor was turned completely around.
