Was it running before you began this work? Chances are something is not reconnected or broken that was removed to get to the head. Reheck everything you did. Plug wires on right plugs? Injector wires on right injectors? Got any spark? Pull plugs and check compression. Raw gas on plugs means flooded condition. lol
