Need help w/ starting inline 6

Alright I've been cruising this forum for a good while trying to find all the info I could on my troubles, but still no start for my 65 c10. My truck has the period inline 6 and was a great running truck til the transmission linkage broke on me. In the process of replacement + the million other things you pick up while disassembling, the truck sat for a while.

I've double checked the electronics; spark to plugs is strong. I've confirmed fuel delivery to carb (new fuel by the way). I have also confirmed my timing, but when I turn the key I get rotation, but no firing. Now, I have searched the forums for similar situations, and have tried all that I've found, but still no luck. Is there anything else I may be overlooking?

Also, my brother was rotating the fan by hand to adjust timing, and a few times the fan would rotate due to slipping of the belt. So the fan would rotate, but the lower pulley would not. Could this be adding to my troubles, or is this nothing to worry about?

I'm a student and getting married in July, so any free time I get you better believe I'm working on my truck. Its going to be my main vehicle if I can get it to a reliable running state.

When i get it running I'll have pics of the whole project up and start a build thread, but til then thats on hold. If ya'll need any pictures that might help please let me know.
