Hi!

I agree with supradaddy0803 on pulling the alarm out... but we've already discussed that.

Never presume that the previous owner of a vehicle did ANYTHING right when you find out they did their own work... it'll just cause you more headaches.

You said you rebuilt the engine? Make sure distributor is in correctly... I overlooked that when I put my JDM engine in... Turns out I had it 180 out. Engine cranked, but would not fire. I could get it to backfire a little on starter spray, so I knew I was getting spark. What you could do to see if you're getting spark is take the rubber part of the intake off at the Y pipe and spray a little starter spray in there (you can get it at an auto parts store) while a friend is turning the key (cranking the engine). If you get little sputters, then you've got spark. Check distributor. Don't know about the fuel relays though...

Just to clear up the factory alarm, it will prevent the car from cranking if its activated. As long as your car is cranking then the alarm is not the problem.
