Default 10th ae problems

ok so my friend has a 10th ae that were trying to get running the motors a fresh rebuild along with new clutch. Now the problems we cant seem to get it to run, it just sits there and cranks, its getting both gas and spark and making combustion. Is there anything thats a common problem on a 2nd gen that is something stupid that usually is the problem? We took all the emissions stuff off thinking that would help and welded the twin scroll open someone said that that should help and still no luck. any help would be great.

Last time I was over there it was VERY flooded. Did you put some new plugs in it yet?

Have you tried to see if it will fire with starting fluid?
