ok so i just bought a new longblock (thanks to tyler)after my old one shot a rod through the block

swapped over everything from my blown one to the new one...dropped it in..

now its not wanting to turn over...it will just spin and spin and spin but wont turn over...wtf..ive changed out the spark plugs , took my battery to autozone to get charged , put 2 gallons of 93 in it...nothing..

no idea what it could be...

yea shit , im tired but the motor is good...i havent slept for a while..

i think it has something to do with the CAS...ecu threw a code 11 at me but it went away...

im going to TDC it and re-install the CAS tomorrow...

have you verified that your fuel pump is running and that your getting spark? To verify fuel just ckech to see if the fuel pump is running. You should here it. The ignition just pull a plug wire off of the spark plug and hold close to the valve cover, and have someone turn it over. You should see the arc from the spark plug wire.

throw the code back at it,
by putting the cas in, on target!

good luck.

you said you getting fuel ?
listening to pump running is not enough. Have you check your injectors yet ?
Could it be plug in wrong ?

Checking the CAS and Timing is a good start.
FYI, Spark wires are never 1-2-3-4.

since you did an engine job, have you did your compression test?

ok , i did the whole timing over AGAIN for the 2nd time...did it perfectly , cams facing outwards , pistons at TDC, matched up the marks and bolt it all back together...


started right up!

but it sounds like absolute SHIT!, like a machine gun ...do i have to mess with the CAS?
