I still think you have the timing off .. This is NOT an interference engine so there is no way in hell the valves are bent on all cylinders! .. Below I posted a link to a YouTube video showing the proper timing marks .. Check it out:

0 compression. I think i need new head or a valve job
Double overhead cam? ... IF so better re-check ALL engine timing procedures! Good luck!
