double check, then triple check your wiring. i had the same issue when i did my MPFI swap, and it took me a month of frustration and agony to finally notice i had two wires backwards :x

So turns out I had all the wiring correct,so i decided to swap in an old core distributor that I had kicking around.Turns out my new distributor was NFG.WTF is all I have to say.Almost a full day of headache due to a defective part.Somebody is gonna get a hurt real good.
