if theirs enough coolant getting into the cylinder yes it will not fire but ya would need alt

Inlet mani gasket or head gasket. do a compression test if they are even it will be the inlet manifold gasket. Couple of hours work at a steedy pace should have it done.

finally got around to taking heads off, gasket blown on one side, one stuck valve each side valve stem seals had come out? should these be replaced?

sound like your heads over heated. I would get those heads reco'd or get some 2nd hand good ones.
Valve stems and seats only come out if the engine and/or heads get servilely over heated. :|

got new head gaskets in, got it all together but it only starts and runs for a few seconds then stops and wont start again. spark seems ok, plenty of fuel getting through fuel rail. any ideas?
