1980 Johnson 7.5hp outboard getting water in cylinders

My son took the motor to tech school to put new rings in it and it ran well before he tore it down. Now I’m getting water in both cylinders. It will run if I pull the lower unit off and run it for a short time. Cranks seals are new, exhaust gaskets are new, reeds are good. I have a head gasket on order but it looks good. Can not figure out how this water is getting in. Any help would be great.
