Kaz, Check your E mail account for pictures. Once you make sure your fuel lines are connected properly pull your spark plugs and make sure you don't have a cylinder full of gas. If you do, dry them out, turn on the ignition (don't crank it over, watch thru the spark plug holes with a flashlight), to see if one of the cylinders fills up again. If it does you probably have injector problems as mr220v suggests.

If you have had raw gas in the cylinders I'd check the oil for gas and change it before trying to start the engine once you sort out the fuel problem. Considering the money you have tied up in the project an extra oil change is like adding a penny to the cost of the total project, but may save the engine.

Also pour a small amount of oil down the spark plug holes, just enough to lubricate the rings before you put the spark plugs back in and try to start it.

Good luck, hope this helps.
