Type of piston has nothing to do with it. Step heads will give higher compression. You can use the pulley mark to confirm TDC provided nothing else is wrong. Should be able to pull the crank while using a light to look at the #1 cylinder. You can tell when it is at TDC with a little practice. As to the mag, you install it at TDC with the rotor pointing to #1 in the the distributer cap. The rotor is set just before it trips, not after. Rotate is until you feel resistance, then install the mag. When you have it in put the coil against the block, pull the coil wire out of the cap and hold it close to the nut on the side, rotate the mag away from the block until it trips, at the same time you should see a spark. You can then rotate the crank 360 degrees and the pulley mark should be inline with the pointer. Start without the choke, or no more than a couple of pulls on the crank, the tractor floods very easily, which may be your problem.
