Default Car will not start

I finsihed my installing my 5.3 heads and scorpion rr and the 42lb injectors on sunday and it started up fine then on monday i installed the ractronix fuel pump kit and the car started fine then too. I had to get a new tb bc when i was porting it i took to much metal off and put a hole in it so i installed the bbk 80mm tb and when i went to start the car it wouldnt fire, it sounded like it was drenched in fuel so i cleaned off the plugs and put them back in and it still wont turn over and i dont know if it is the tune and the car is just running super rich or what but 2moro its going to get the tune done so hopefully it will be all good then but does anybody have any suggestions

it may be flooded, did you try to keep tapping the gas while starting it?

ya i tried that and we let it sit a while and tried it again, when i checked the oil it smelled like there was gas in it and i just put the oil in on sunday so im thinkign that the cylinder walls got flooded with gas and it leaked down into the oil
