Default Strange alignment problem

Abotu a year and a half ago, somebody hit my car (94 accord) going about 20-25 mph, dented up my drivers side, and bent alot of suspension parts (lca, rear subframe, p/s rack, knuckle assembly tie rod, radius rod) I have since replaced ALL of these parts and a few more, and have gotten an alignment, and done an engine swap (h22 w/lsd), gotten another alignment and the car still hooks to the right when I accelerate. I can't figure it out for the life of me, the car brakes straight, and drives relatively straigh when no gas is applied (still veers slightly to the right)
I am baffled as to what else it could be.
Can any suspension guru give me some ideas?
Thanks!

Your alignment numbers would help.

Did it bend the wheel? What condition are your tires in, and are the tire pressures correct?

Unfortunatly I wasn't given the numbers, but my tire pressure is correct.
It seems something is shifting, because if i hold the steering wheel straight when im cruising, and then hit the gas, still firmly holding the wheel, the car still veers to the right a little. Im tempted to find a front subframe and replace that as well...
