I'd (1) pull valve cover/spark plugs (2) turn eng dampener till #6 rocker arms are both moving & are at the same height (rockover),(actually pushrod height might be more dead on on a mech cam if the gap is adjusted way out of whack) but see how it looks/goes. (3) dampener slit should be within a degree or two of TDC on the timing tab (symmetrical cam) (4) at that point rotor should be pointing to #1 cap terminal (5) if at #6 he's 180 out. With all that crankin he might wanna regoop the cam. EDIT What Swinger said, rocker adj is .010" intake/.020" ex. tho not sure if those are hot or cold specs but if very close then the dist and or cam is phased wrong.

Either the lifters are adjusted way too tight and the valves are not closing or it's put together wrong in the timing set area.

He didn't by any chance buy a hydraulic cam package from Clifford did he? If he has hydraulic lifters with adjustable rockers and pushrods the lifters will never get oil.
If he degreed the cam when he installed it it is very easy to use the #1 exhaust instead of the #1 intake too.
A Slant cam has to be pretty far off to lose enough compression that it won't at least fire.
