address the fuel pump for fuel problem... if the pump is getting power then it should be pumping fuel unless its fried... if thats good address your coils and such... i have a feeling you didnt hook up a ground somewhere...

in fact, I don't see how that could work in any case...

...It is called a motorswap

I'm doing another one this weekend
Ok is the fuel ump getting power? is the coil? where does the power end? is the ECU getting power? check the ground on the ECU as it is case grounded

check your coil and see if there is spark or getting power maybe check the plugs,see if its getting fuel from the pump and if its coming up to the engine or just check and see if the + wire on the pump is live,if theirs nothing ,than i would have to agree that theirs a ground problem ,also
