You know, when I put my built motor in my car didn't start either. I pulled the plugs and didn't smell any gas. So I removed the fuel pump fuse and cleaned it then put it back in. After a few cranks she started. Are u sure that fuel is getting into the cylinders?

did you ground the cvonnector at the therostat housing. that is the ground for the ecu. and why would you build up your head and not the block? you probably would have got more power by getting a 1.8 with higher comp

Thats my guess. Check the ground that screws in off of the thermostat housing. I can almost garuntee it's a ground connection somewhere. Just check all your grounds including that one.

thermostat sensor? Well if you have a CEL, the ground at the thermostat housing is most likely plugged in. Since that's the ECU ground.
Your code 6 probably means you plugged the VTEC plug (green) into the Coolant temp snesor (Gray plug). Switch those around. You should be good to go. If your CTS reads open, it's reading -40 degrees and flooding your engine.
You owe me $10
