just wont start? what IS it doing then? any starter noise? is it trying to turn? is your battery ran factory or in the trunk (if in trunk check for a inline fuse or distribution block)...recheck all your grounds too

If you've swapped everything over you've either damaged something or installed something wrong. I'd look really carefully at the distributor timing and the order of the spark plug wires. Most other things you should give you a CEL if the ECU decides there is a no-start condition.

Agreed.If you definitely have fuel and spark,check that the distributor is keyed into the cam correctly(you can make the keyway go in 180 degrees off if you try)and check the firing order.Did you put a new timing belt on the engine?Is cam timing correct?
