"seated" properly meaning that you thought that the tab on the cam gear was in the groove on the cam shaft when it really wasn't. I've seen it before and depending on how you look at it when assembling it you can make a mistake. It's also possible that the oil pump gear on the crank may have slipped/stripped. Anyway, what I wouyld do is take off the cams and apply some compressed air to each cylinder to see if they hold pressure. This test will tell you if you bent any valves. If you lose pressure then you know the head has to come off. Electrical problem is probably caused by loose ground cable/strap from battery ground to gearbox or where it connects to the chasis up front.
