+1 If nothing else was touched and all you are getting is an occasional nasty backfire then the leads are 180 degrees out.

Given the crank turns twice for every turn of the distributor and camshaft there is always a 50% chance it will be wrong if guaged just by TDC on the crank. The firing order is 1342 so just swap leads 1 and 4 and then 3 and 2 over at the cap and try the starter.
