As Frank mentioned, it usually backfires pretty nasty if it's 180 out.

Check the plug wire order and try again.

Have the distributor clamp slightly loose such that you can rotate the 
distributor
to different positions while you or your assistant makes attempts to start the 
engine.
 
If you have real crazy flooding then it's a dangerous situation and you need to 
check the float valves and float vents on the carbs.
