Default gas in oil, car won't start?

ok, new motor and everything. I put in 5w 30 break in oil (royal purple). before i did that the car would idle fine with 10w30. after i did the change and put in the other it started for a few seconds then stopped. will crank but wont start. smells like gas in the oil, I changed the oil and filter asap. any ideas? car still won't start. everything else is fine. spark plugs aren't wet.

all the grounds are tight on the cylinder heads and etc. I just don't understand why. I also bolted up my steering shaft.

Has nothing to do with gas in the oil. Something is either not hooked up, or not hooked up correctly.
