The DME shuts off fuel pretty quick to a missing cylinder.
I'm not going to reread this thread but you seem to be a bit all over the map about what's going on. Did you do a compression test ? Do you have a scan tool working?

Not likely that all cylinders were within a few psi of 120. Did you do only 4 compression strokes or 10 or whatever seconds of cranking ??

We did 5 cranks and they all came out fine, no sudden loss of pressure or anything like that. Regardless, we're still gonna do the leak down test to be more precise because we could've missed something. Until then, I don't have much to say until I get the results, gotta go pick up the compressor from the shop.

well uhh i think we found the problem, we took off the rockers and stuff so the valves stay closed, put some air into the spark plug hole and gasoline in the exhaust port and it started bubbling like crazy.
we have a bent valve, here's the video https://youtube.com/shorts/yhOJENiTfrU I tried to upload it as a normal video but it became a short ): so basically the dude who did our timing guides messed up our engine and didn't tell us. so from now on were probably gonna stick to working on our own cars.
