Make sure TPS and map connectors aren't swapped. What ecu, injectors and distributor did you use.

its hard to help with so little info but the map sensor is directly related to manifold vacuum. so i would go purchase a vacuum guage and check your vacuum you may have a leak.

a cylinder leak down test will pin point it for u. shooting air into the cylinder u must listen where u hear the air escaping. hear it whistling in the oil pan through the dip stick tube its your rings. hear it in ur head bent valve or shot valve guides. air bubbles in your coolant you can guess cracked cylinder wall or head gasket shot on that cylnder.
