no, a burned wire physically cannot throw the timing out. However, I seem to remember you having other issues with the car, so maybe now that you have all 8 cylinders firing the other issues are getting their chance to come to life.
Chances are, you didnt do everything 100% perfect during your swap. Check, and double check EVERYTHING you did as the first step. Then check, and double check the basics before centering on either a spark or fuel issue, because a backfire through the intake could be caused by either.
On that note, if it is backfiring through the intake...you might want to invest in a new MAF.
