74 2.0L. single carb. #4 head had both exhaust studs broken. replaced head, and now it won't hit on three and four.

Its got fire and gas. vlaves have been checked, and rechecked three times. The replacement head came from my personal car that got a new engine last week. I don't believe the head is the problem.

I'm stumped. Anyone got any ideas? What am I overlooking?

TIA, Curt
