i would check things that have to do with fuel.... i.e. fuel pressure regulator, injectors, injector clips, fuel filter clogged, fuel rail installed properly and not clogged, fuel pump works...... check those sounds like if it was running lean your not getting fuel....

Are you getting spark?
Are you getting fuel?
Are you getting air?
Is the mechanical timing correct?
Is the compression good?

These are basically the only things that go into a no start condition. Check them in that order and narrow it down. The FAQ above will have detailed how to sections to determine each.

running lean sounds thike the main issue that started it check the injectors for the proper resictence also check ur ecu never know is anything coming out of that hose? or does it suck air

also check for spark could of been a poor coil causing week spark causing poor combustion making it seem to run lean/rich (bros car had the same prob)
