Camshaft to crankshaft timing is different from ignition timing.
A lot of things effect compression.
The head needs to provide a seal for the cylinder
The valves need to close and seal
The rings need to provide a seal
The cylinder walls need to provide a seal.
Think about the cylinder as a vacuum chamber. Any opening or leak will keep it from building pressure just like a balloon with a pin hole in it.
When all else fails go back to the basics.
