Swap wont turn over

I have completed my rebuild then swap S4 NA --->TII and the idiot that I am forgot to tighten and oil cooler line. When I started it oil sprayed out of the oil cooler line. So it started and ran for about 5 seconds then I had to shut it off. After that I tightened the oil cooler line and added some oil and tried to start it again but it didn't. Since then i've tried boosting the car and push starting with no avail. I have a fuel cut switch and I've ruled out flooding as a problem for right now. I intalled all new vaccum hoses and checked for leaks but I couldn't find any.

So is there any other reason a swap and rebuild would not start up again?

What else should I check?

Check the plugs! This is what caused mine to be a huge bitch for the past week. I pulled them off, gave them a good cleaning and drying and put them back in. Turned over on the first try! If it has been flooded for a bit, definately check the plugs.

Oh yea I forgot to mention that I cleaned the plugs a few times and even bought new plugs. Do you think it could be an ignition problem?
