check all your connections like fuel, spark, any thing else you took loose for starters

I have, all the spark plugs are connected wires and the pack is connected to the harness. I dont remember removing any fuel lines. But everything looks like its connected. except for one small metal tube that goes from the back of the intake manifold to the front of the engine. Its not connected to anything and i cant see where it connects to, if anywhere.

check all your wires. make sure nothing came undone when you pulled the head. Check your timing also.
