Default The M52 is in! just wont start :S

Im new to here and can now happily say i have a 328ti.. but after fitting the motor at the weekend i have come across an EWS problem and i really need help.. you dont know how much it hurts knowing thats the last thing left to do... Basically i have a 96 318ti and put the 96 328 motor in so there both ewsII, i swapped the ews box behind the glove box (one with yellow plug) and ive swapped the little box connected to the antenna on the ignition barrel (under the steering column) and ive also swapped the transponder chip off the 328 into my compact key.. and of course the 328 siemens DME that is matched to these boxes and chip, well i come to turn the key a wehey the fuel pump buzzes for a sec and the dash lights pop on like normal but the naff all there .. the car just doesnt turn over :S I need to know if i have swapped everything over? (bearing in mind i still have the 328 sat right next to my compact so i can source any parts still needed) or do i need something realigning ? which i shouldnt because i saw that Phamster swapped bits over and his started soo please can somebody help me its doing my nutt in!

Any help would seriously be appreciated.. would say come an have a local bevvy with me but im from the UK and most on here are from the US i see..

PS.. since ive done the swap i have taken progress pictures and will hopefully write up and add pics on here once i have the car running with peace of mind
