whats your timing at
Did a cam gear slip? cause a back fire in the intake manifold.

If it was cheap the engine could be bad. I know you dont want to hear that but it is highly probable.

check the ignition fuse.

I did the same swap and blew ignition fuse a few times.

Are you SURE you have an obd1 distributor? Cause I didn't want to wait for mine so I tried every combination of them possible till I finally got my obd1 one and it would blow the fuse with an obd0 and a civic obd1 dizzy ghetto rigged on.
