First check your grounds: Frame to tranny, core support to valve cover and most importantly the engine harness to thermostat housing - this is one that is easily overlooked. It's easy to get the MAP and TPS plugs switched around since they are the same style plugs and near one another. Make sure you have your firing order on the plug wires correct. That's the biggest things I can think of at the moment.
