WTF!! I finally get everything back together on my car, and it won't start.

I can't turn the engine over by hand more than 1/4th or so of a revolution, and it smokes when I try to start it.

I guess I should have noticed when the pulleys didn't line up just right...

Which really pisses me off seeing as how I had the clutch pushed while I was working on it.

Hmm...maybe not. I cranked it bit more and restabbed the CAS, and now I can turn it by hand, plus it runs.

Still smokes a little...

Timing must be WAY off since when I turn it to retard it runs better (plus it's WAY quieter than normal).

At least it's idling fairly well even when it's cold (although at 1000).
