Default Starting trouble, help me out

I finally finished my D series build and now the car wont start.
-I am using the tune from a similar setup to get it started
-new plugs, same wire that worked before
-It hasnt ran in a year (old fuel)... BUT i poured in 3/4s gallon of fresh gas.
-The battery has been relocated to the trunk with 4g wire.
-I get spark, definately
-I get fuel... looks like plenty of it

It cranks, but it doesnt sound very quick... maybe not quick enough. Ive been cranking and cranking it but it simply wont start. Ive been trying to jump it using my truck.


What exactly should I do to start trouble shooting this? Fuel and spark to me means it should start. I get pops every once in a while but nothing that sounds like its about to start.

I just realized something really stupid, the map I have is for a Z6, i put in basically a Y8 (dizzy and all).


Is it likely that the difference in timing is my issue?
