The battery is low and I was doing it through jumper cables and it made no difference it went the same speed.
What am I missing any suggestions?

Chevy has a little surprise. When you put it together with the timing marks on the cam and crank gears facing each other, the engine is set with number 6 in the firing position. If you leave it there and drop the distributor in timed to number 1 firing, it's 180 degrees out.
There plenty of other reasons but let's start with whether that is a situation or not for your set up.
