    94 mx3 Bp swap please HELP car wont start

    Hey if someone could help me out with this that'd be great.
    I just got done doing a swap from a 94 escort GT into my 94 mx3.
    I've got all the wiring hooked up and went to start the engine and it tuned once and stopped. Tried it again, nothing. Let the oil soak in for a day. Came back and the engine kept turning. I then remembered i forgot to plug in the distributor. Durh. Tried to start it again and now its making some kind of weird noise. You know how a big sheet of metal when you bend it makes that weird warping-ish noise? Well the engine sounded slightly like that after it would turn over once or twice. Kind of sounded like it was "burping" that noise out or something.
    Someone mentioned it might be the cam/valve timing thats off...
    any other ideas, suggestions?
