What's the deal? Is she running yet or what? If you're still waiting on that cable I'd be making some calls, taking names, and kicking asses!

I was being a bit harsh. You did learn it's true..

But it sounds like you are rushing and not thinking.

Get a white board next time.
Get a digital camera next time.

Take pictures of every part of the engine. Every Connection and hose.

Put in order the steps you have to do to make it run..

Ie.

Clean Head and Block Surfaces
Install Head Studs
Place Head Gasket (Correct Face Up)
Initial Torque Head in Outward Pattern to 20 Ft/Lb
Install Head to 80 Ft/Lb In Outward Patten
Time Motor so that crank is TDC Intake Cam sits 90 Deg Ex Cam Sits 270 Deg
Tension Chain and rotate assembly (Crank) by hand Clockwise (Twice) to check timing.

Etc.. Etc..

You wasted so much time and money by being sloppy... If you worked in a garage and did this, you would be fired and blacklisted in your city.
