Cam install help (urgent)

first of I did a search and nothing good comes up, plenty of threads about how we need a cam install how-to but no real help this is my problem

ok i have the J-spec cams in my car. from what i can tell in the manual this is how i have them installed.

the I and E on the cam gears are lined up, the lobes on the intake cam point towards the car, the lobes on the exhaust cam point away from the car (this is all on cylinder 4, the last one on the passanger side) and the key lock for the crank pulley is pointing up.

when i try to start the car she stumbles, finally starts, idles REALLY rough and then stalls. can someone please help me. the manual really isnt all the help full.

like i said this is urgent i need to have my car on the road by tuesday. thanks guys.
