I woul check over all of the connections again. Are you sure you're getting fuel to the cylinders? Spark? What all did they do to it?

Damn, Sorry to hear that.

My car doesnt start sometimes too, Anyone know what that could mean? (Its starts up than turns itself off, almost like a stall out, without the car trying to beat the crap out of you)

you checked the basics...CAS...make sure it's in the correct position. Common for people installing cams...seeing you did an overhaul, wouldn't hurt to check.

check the cam angle sensor. I just had the same problem. this sensor is at the front right side of the valve cover and sticker out like an inch front of the front right hand corner. car will turn over but jut not start. its like 80 bucks and you can do it yourself.
