car wont start and is smoking!!

ok i just bought an 87 camaro 2.8 with a blown head gasket. and i just finished chaging it, put it all back together and filled it all back up and it wont start. its got new every thing plugs, wires, cap rotot, distributor. i have a fuel pressure gauge on it and im getting about 35-40psi. it will crank and crank but notihng happens, then it begines to smoke real bad at the throttle body adn smells like somthing is burning. then once the key gets turned back it will make a popping noice for a couple seconds. oh and when its cranking over i can hear a sound like gulp, gulp gulp, but i dont know what that could be, is it the oil pan, its got fresh oil in it. thnaks for the help.
