Just put motor in and wont run right...HELP!!!

i got this car with a knock in it...so i got another l98 block and switch everything over...when i got the car it didnt run the greatest when u put it in gear and tried to drive it but just ideling it ran fine....well its still doing the samething with the new motor in it,....i have wires that arent used and not really surre where they go...also two of the wires on the pass. side the ends are broke,.just one prong wires,..the knock sensor isnt hooked up so i tried hooking them up to it and still nothing...also when i check the timing it reads normal and it idles fine as soon as u go to drive it, it sounds like its back firing in the intake so if i spin the distributor to where its not ever close to being timied right it runs alot better,....sry for the big ol paragraph..but ne help would be nice and also where could u ever get new connectors for the broken ones??? thanks
