Listen to what everybody else is saying and fix your grammar and spelling next time.

Since you removed the timing belt, I am pretty sure you messed up your timing. So: check the timing and once you are done, CHECK it again.

After you do that come back to us.

I wish I had blown it, believe me, I do...

Either your timing is off, you have very little fuel pressure or you have a large vacuum leak.

Could be your idle rpm screw stop. When I put a Modern Performance 60mm TB on my car, after a few years the screw stop broke off and the car wouldnt hold idle. It would just die because the butterfly plate was essentially fully closed when off the gas.

When I did my rebuild, I forgot to plug my SAFC-II back in... that basically disabled my MAP... anyhow, my car did the same thing. It would run, but wouldn't idle. It would also die if I let off the gas and pushed in the clutch while driving. I would just give your MAP a quick spot check. Make sure it is plugged up, and/or not bad.
