is the distributor turning as some of these had a problem with the driven gear at the bottom of the distributor shearing off the lock pin causing a no start as the distributor is not turning.
Good chance on a vehicle that age that the pick-up coil in the distributor is bad. Also you need to make sure the distributor is turning. If the distributor is not turning, you could have a locked up oil pump, or a bad timing chain.
Since the distributor is in the front on the 460 and you replaced the water pump check the connection plug coming from the distributor. If you disconnected it when removing the water pump you may not have made the connection tight enough to complete the connection. Look for pinched wires also. And your engine does not have points. You have a breakerless ignition system in the distributor. The air gap should be set at 8 thousands of an inch. Check the gap. Good luck.
