I have had this problem with a 7.3 in the past, where a little shot of ether (no glow plugs!) fired got it running, but wouldn't run on its own. It ended up being the IDM, and it got to the point where it wouldn't start on ether, either, and I began troubleshooting with a scanner, which is what you'll need to do if you don't wanna throw parts at it.

There's quite a bit of info you'll need to give us to be able to really help troubleshoot.
Did the engine run before the rebuild? What all was replaced?
Those a troubleshooting diagram on the stickies here. That should help you narrow it down quite a bit, too.
