Have you checked compression? Is it possible the timing gear ( if pressed on ) has slipped?

Compression was a little low cold but pretty consistent. As far as the timing gear I have no clue how to check that.

How low is the compression?

Remove plugs and squirt some oil down each cylinder to increase compression...

Are you having a voltage "drop" at the coil while the car is cranking??

I have a “Hotwire” that I have tried from the battery to the coil when trying to start as well to rule this out still no start. I will recheck compression.
