Default 99 civic lx 97 hx swap wont start...ideas?

I got a 99 civic sedan and put a 97 hx d16 vtec e motor in it.

It turns over but it wont start, I do not hear the fuel pump prime, and when i pull fuel line off theres no fuel like it never pumped or got pressurized. I switched out the main relay from the 97 hx civic to the 99 sedan and installed it. I checked fuel pump/ignition/ecu fuses and they are all okay. Any other ideas? I broke the top o2 sensor when installing but just removed it so its not pluged in(if anyone has one of these pm me now) ideas thanks.
