Can you hear anything, when you turn the engine over with a spanner?  Have you done a paperclip test?  :-/

Have you connected the cam sensor and crank sensor?
Just a thought.

Could be the solenoid on the starter thats dodgy? or knackered battery.

Have you checked all 5 (I think) earth straps? I know you said you checked but how many of them? Is the connection to the body free from corrosion? Just going through the book of lies to eliminate possible causes.

Did you at any point turn the crank anti clockwise?
