Default Ef b18 swap(engine problem)

aiight well i had my starter go out about a month ago...went and roll started it to take it to the garage...started up fine....so i drove it not even a half mile to the garage and parked it......so i got the starter come back...replaced it...replaced valve cover spark plugs spark plug wires...now for some reason when i try to start it...it just cranks and cranks and cranks.....there was no smoke or anything and im trying to narrow down the possiblities....i am defin gonna change the timing belt since it seems alil stretch and could have possible jump time....also it could be my dizzy thats bad....anyone have suggestions on how to find out the main problem...or am i looking at putting it in time again with new time belt and then changing dizzy
