Did you use your injectors? If yes then make sure they are in the same order as they were in your old engine. If you used injectors from Ford engine then they have to be programmed to your ECU or else it won't start.

I'm guessing it doesn't turn over at all?

Does the red light near DSC button/gearshifter flash rapidly? Did you use your high pressure pump?
