I would double check the cam gear and crank gear timing marks once again... just make sure it's dead on.

I made a post long ago with some pics that may be of use, this is how it should look, nevermind the issue that I had with car.

If that is all you changed, then double check the camshaft timing, and make sure your distributor is not 180 degrees out of phase.
