The rings may have not seated in yet. Depending on the manufacturer of your pistons and rings, the break in process can take longer or shorter.
I'm assuming you replaced all the sensors (primarily coolant is what I'm wondering about) when you put this motor together. A faulty water temp sensor can cause horrible things with your A/F ratio.
Also, make sure your TPS is set properly. Some people tend to remove the TPS when they clean up the throttle body and it gets reinstalled set incorrectly.
Make sure your ignition timing is set properly. KAs should be 20 BTDC (stock setting, you might have it advanced a little)
Double check that the MAF plug is seated properly and you have no leaks in your intake pipes.
