Cherry red headers usually indicates severely retarded timing...like ATDC instead of BTDC. What's your timing set at when you start it up (SPOUT out)? From what you describe, it sounds like your base timing is probably 0 degrees or even worse. If you can't get the timing situated with small adjustments of the distributor then you've probably got it stabbed one tooth off.
