Angry Engine not running properly

Hi guys,

Just installed newman cams with the solid lifters, also got a port and polished head.

Fired it up today, to run the cam in.
But it sounds like its not firing properly or is running really rich!

Got the solid lifters set up as per Newman, and have also checked after this little running.

Im 90% sure all the sensor cables and sensors in the correct places! Maybe someone could list the colours and where they go for MFI turbo setup.

All the plugs are good, and have checked that they all have a good spark to them.
All the leads are good, and no cracks in dizzy at all.

When i timed the engine up, i set the crank at 114* After TDC, and set number 1 inlet valve at the fully open position. (number one being the pulley end) but not sure if this should be at dizzy end?

also played around with the timing and the fueling, but it didnt make much of a difference!

Any help for this would be greatly appreciated.
