Post No start, everything seems fine

OK, I'll try to keep this short. This is really starting to bug me...
My friend and I recently reassembled his 89. We put in a new cam, retarded 4 degs., checked the cam timing, all was OK. Put everything back together, started it, couldn't hold a steady idle, then just died and never started again. We checked the timing and it's OK. Swapped in a new distributor and still no start. Pulled all the plugs and they were wet with fuel. Let them air out, reinstalled, and still no start. However, everytime we crank it, we can hear "popping" from the intake. Could the timing be off, igniting the mixture as the intake valve is still open?
