Default new motor is in and ready to tear except...

Just put the finishing touches on my new motor. It has TFS heads, TFS stage 1 cam w/ 1.7 rockers, TFS street intake, 24# hr injectors, 190 lph fuel pump. Everything was looking good and I tried to start here up. When i did it started to idle really rough at around 900 -1000 rpm and then it stalled. Each time i start it and try to let it idle it stalls. This is the first time i ever put a new motor in a car and am not sure where to go from here. I know that the distributor is put in correctly and all. When is revved up it stays running. I was wonderng if maybe i was running to much fuel pressure? it is set at around 40 psi. Would too much fuel make it stall at idle? Any suggestions or help would b greatly appreciated! Thanks for the help fellas.
