Anyone have any ideas of why it wont run?

are you sure you put the timing chain on right? do you have a degree wheel? if so, verify the valvetrain is in sync with the bottom end. its alo possible that valves or pushrods may have bent when the timing chain broke.
Could be what slowpoke96z28 suggested. Are you throwing any codes?? Could need a crank re-learn or crank sensor change if the other stuff turns out fine. Good luck, hope you find the problem.
