I'd recheck your timing it could be off just enough drive you nutz..When I replace my distributor it was off and it drove me crazy till I took it back out and redid it

here is something that i had to do check to see if you are getting fuel all the way through the fuel rail
Take the fuel pressure return line off and make sure that the fuel is getting all the way through the fuel rail. post it after you try that
