Default 93 with ls vtec swap

just bought a 93 civic with a ls vtec swap in it. couldnt get it started for a while. put new plugs and wires, new distribitor and external coil, map sensor and it started. now its idling at 2000 and i cant figure out why?? i have been told maybe new throttle body gasket and intake manifold gasket? is this right?

make sure fuel pump comes on. The nest way is to have someone listen at the gas cap ,and turn the key on.

**best**
