Default did swap motor wont start

I did a d series swap...i stayed with de series bc i plan to boost it soon...I did the swap from a d16z6 to a d16zc (JDM)....IT acts like it wants to turn over but it wont...i went through and cleaned the grounds to the tranny/valve cover/thermostat housing...I also have fuel and i have spark...i just put new plugs in...Is there any other grounds that i should check? I purchased the motor from Hmotorsonline.com...Any ideas?? Maybe the firing order is off?

The firing order is 1342.
#1 cylinder on the engine is at the right/driver side, next is #2 and so on.
#1 on the distributor cap should be at the nine o'clock position, when looking down at the top of the cap. The direction of rotation is clockwise
