I think that I also forgot to mention that the car has a RB intake as well as that Edelbrock carb. (Just to give as much info as I possibly can to try and diagnose this problem) Thanks.

(Because as the pulley turns that is the first notch that lines up with the pin) Correct? I am thinking about buying a new dizzy, and wires. (coils and plugs are new) To see if that helps the problem. Could it be any problems with the carb? Remember: No power and backfiring. (Sometimes through the carb)

So is the carb just out of the box and into the car? I think those would need some mods to run properly on a rotary application, like what RB does with the holleys.

Thanks guys for all of your input. I unfotunatley will inform you all that the front housing has 0 compression and the back has good compression. I wish I would have spent the $20 on the comp tester before I spent the $280 on the carb. Oh well live and learn. If anyone has or knows of anyone that has a motor that they are trying to get rid of let me know. The closer to South Alabama the better. Again thanks for your time.
