well will it not start, i dont think you said? Did you do the timing for the crank by the mark on the oil pump and the t-belt cog on the crank. If you did it by the timing marks on the plastic cover you did it wrong, those are ignition timine marks.

so you did it by the t-belt gear and oil pump, and not the accessory belt pulley marks? If so then the bottoms right, and it you did the top by the "7'o clock" mark on the cam gear and the mark on the plastic behind it, which basically has the word up in the upward position the timing should be straight. Is it tensioned good, and your sure you have fuel and spark?
