Distributor connected?
Ecu connected?
Did you remove the distributor?
Did you re-align the distributor?
Did you replace the timing belt?
Did you re-align the tming belt?
Are your spark plugs wire connected properly?
Check your grounds. Make sure that the one that connects to the valve cover is not connected to the part that covers the timing belt. It should look like the picture below. Good luck.
Actually the car can still run w/o that ground, I accidentally had this happen when I did a valve lash. Weird but after shutting off the car I did put it back though.

It CAN still run, but this ground CAN also cause start issues and I thought it pertinent to mention the one that is sometimes connected the wrong way. I just finished my swap and was having the same issue as OP. After installing the ground the proper way, it started right up. Good luck.
