My non-expert guess is the computer is in "limp home mode". Basically a very tame setting that will start and run but little else.

I can't see that a TBI and ECM change the laws of engine physics that say a 350 wants a lot more advance then 0 or 4*.

Did all of the O2 and other sensors get moved? One or more missing signals might cause the computer to assume something is busted.
