Default ATTN: NEED HELP QUICK

I have an 86 gt I put together with stock speed density comp and 24 lb injectors, other mods are aluminum heads and gt40 intake, those are irrelevant b/c it has run before. I just put 24 lb injectors on the car with the stock fuel rails and wiring harness and the car wont start. It turns and turns and wont turn over. Now I have heard many good stories with speed density and 24 lb injectors so what could be the problem? Is there a special way to put injectors on that I am missing (just popped em in the fuel rail)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

anyone have any thoughts? I realize this would probably be better served in the speed density section but I am in a hurry.

This may seem elementary but I've seen it before.. Make sure you have the injector harness pluged in all the way. Also break out the noid light and make sure you have a pulse. If you dont have the light, and this method is a pain in the @ss and not really recomended but you can always pull one injector from the rail and see if its spraying.

Obviously you need air/fuel/spark to run check all the above. If you just had this thing torn apart you may have loose plug wires at the distributer check that too..
