Could you have messed up the firing order of your spark plug wires?

Hard to guess without hearing the sound first-hand...

Is it possible that you have the cam timing 180 degrees off?
If you have spark and fuel, and if the engine is in good condition, with adequate compression, it should start...

Sounds like the timing is completely off.
