    The distributor is 180* out of timing.

    This is what it needs to look like

    REMEMBER all settings must be done with #1 cylinder on TDC COMPRESSION stroke.

      That is the most probabal cause. Otherwise, it could be a bent valve or perhaps a cracked cam or someoen could have tried to install a cam or timing chain and didn't time the cam correctly to the crank. But, most likely the wires are on backwards or the distributor is turned.
