It seems that all you have done is change the cylinder head from one type to another. If the engine had compression and ran before the change it seems to follow that the problem relates to the change of cylinder head. Before looking at some of the more involved/unlikely suggestions (assuming the engine did have compression and did run before the change), you need to look at exactly what you did when you changed the head and, particularly, the head gasket used. As Tony says above, a LC gasket will not work well with a HC head.
