Default Cant get car to start help needed!

Hey guys, ive got spark and injectors firing when cranked. Only problem is it won't start. I havent got an original cam pulley to see if the cam timing is correct, how else can i check its right?

Even with a fully charged battery it seems harder to crank than my old NA CVH with a higher compression ratio! This also leads me to think the cam is wrong.

I got one cylinder to fire once and it pretty much stopped the engine.!?!

A couple of other issues, Which plugs on the EFI injector harness plug to which cylinders injector? I have modified my plenum so my Throttle body is now near cylinder one. From the end where the TPS sensor tails from do the injector tails go from 4 to 1 from there to the end that has the main loom plug?

The other issue, this is probably obvious but i cant overlook it!, do the numbers on the coilpack refer to the cylinder no.s, cylinder one being the cambelt end?

Regards, Mudge
