MAke sure all the vacuum tubes around the throttle body are blocked or connected to the right place. if unsure, block them off. Can you hear any air getting sucked in other than through the inlet opening ? You could try the idle speed screw on top of the throttle body in case someone has screwed it out too far.
Just screw it right in abd then unscrew it between half and two turns will get you close if that happens to be the problem. Has there been any work done on the engine during the transplant ? Be nice to know if anything has been touched since the engine was working in previous car. Are the MAP sensor and TPS connected ? MAP has loom and vacuum connection, TPS has loom connector. Car shouldn't run at all if MAP not connected but will if TPS not connected - albeit not too well.
