Hello Ucmasta, I would try starting it with starting fluid, follow instructions on fixkick website under the no start page, it if starts with test fuel then it's not a timing issue.
Do you have a timing light? (They're $20 in harbor freight) while cranking the light will tell you whether you are close to where your ignition timing should be. This is how I found out I was timing my ignition backwards last year.
I've gotten p0340 but never p0342 yet. Looking at the picture of you camshaft gear I see it's not pointing exactly at 6 o'clock but I assume you had it pointing at 6 o'clock when you dropped the distributor to point at 1 o'clock
