Stop listening to hick. He has no idea what he is talking about.
If you replaced both sensors and still get the code its because of a timing issue.
If your t chain has too much slack it can cause the code. Or a worn out distributor can cause the same code. Its a code caused by the pickups in dizzy and crank reading separate readings.
Hick if it had frayed wires it wouldn't run you artard.

Just start over stabbing the dizzy. Grt the engine to tdc on number 1 and stab it. The slot part is just a oil pump shaft. Its free to move when the dizzy is out

Newly rebuilt dont mean ish. Rebuilders use cheap ish parts. And have people who bearly function working for them. At my shop we just got a simple 350 from a rebuilder..... it was missing one rod bearing! Who the eff forgets a rod bearing? Diff company sent us a motor that the tchain was a tooth off.

And so does that mean you and your dad did the machine work? Full assembly with all new parts? Or "rebuild" means you took it apart and tossed some new bearings and rings in it?
