Wow, that's pretty low compression. It should be 190 or so...

I'd say you should be looking for a replacement engine, with good compression figures.

Your timing is off. Did you take out the cams? Did you align them correctly when put them back in? Did you check to see if you put the cam pulley's on backwards? The R should be showing on the head next to the firewall and the L should be showing on the pulley next to the rad.
