Default Ford Ranger question

Ive just finished putting a low mileage 3.0 in my 2001 Ranger (225,000
miles). The current engine came out of a 2003, and has 75k miles on it.
After ****ing around for a week, unable to start it, a friend changed
the spark plug wires around (seems most of the online diagrams are
WRONG) and it started right up. However..when adding throttle over
about 1500 rmp..it starts to lope...vroom...vroom...vroom...vroom

What the hell is it and how do I fix it?

I stuck on the original intake manifold after drilling and taping holes
(properly) to use the original intake. Im NOT getting a check engine
light and my code reader is isnt showing any codes.

Anyone have any ideas?
