Default new vtec solenoid and BAM! no more engine...

Hey fellas,
Dont know if this is a stupid question, but my friend is swapping his motor to a SOHC d16 (he had same engine before just blew it, cant afford to upgrade) Anyways I've never installed an engine, but he said that the new engine was running but the vtec wasnt popping so he replaced the vtec solenoid. Now the engine wont even crank over! any ideas whats going on. again i've never installed an engine so this may be a stupid tread, but any suggestions or other treads would help. Did a search and didnt find anything. Thanks

Make sure everything is connected, just replacing the VTEC solenoid won't make the car not start. Check all the easy stuff first batter, fuses, relay etc...
