Sounds like the front pulley was put on 90 or 180 degrees out of alignment. Considering you
swapped in an engine I could see this being very likely. On some year 12As it is very easy to mount the front pulley (the one with the timing marks) randomly. To make it sure its right find TDC using the flywheel or sparkplug method and then see if your pulley is correct. If not just undo the 4 small 10mm bolts holding it on and turn it until it shows TDC as well.
