I have done it many times, but did the plug wires get put back in the correct firing order? I have caught myself several (well many) times do a dumb butt move when replacing cap or wires.

The only other thing that comes to mind is since you don't know about the so called rebuild, maybe time chain slipped a tooth or is loose.

I'd start from basics, get engine set to TDC and then check wires and all.
