When you say you “rebuilt” the carb, please let us know what you did for the “rebuild”.
With dry plugs, that does tend to lead one to the carb, so clearly the fuel is not getting thru the carb, so I would surmise it has plugged ports and such.
Did you use an ultrasonic cleaner to thoroughly clean the carb? Did you remove all welch plugs to ensure there is zero blockages?
