wont start for anything!

Ok i have a 1985 300sd w126 196,000 miles on it. I just did an engine swap (old engine was supposedly seized), but there was no fuel coming from the injection pump. I called the injection pump shop and they said it would cost 150-200$ to even test the pump, so the guy gave me a couple of tips. He said to try and use some wd-40 as starting fluid to at least get it to run a while to see if that would bleed the air out... (i just replaced the primer pump w/ the new version, and bled the lines many times) anyway, it would not even start on wd-40 in the intake! i tryed many different amounts of wd-40 and nothing. Do you think that i have a vacuum line on wrong?? or could it be the new custom air intake tube i just put on it.
www.pgmfi.org/~firepyroandy << this is my website with pix, please click on "new engine installed" to see wear i am. I really dont know much about the car, i got it for 300$ and am starting to think that i should have boughten a running car..

please help me out if you can.
