Default Help 5.3 4 cylinders are misfiring

I have a 68 firebird with a 5.3 and an LS1 intake backed up with a turbo 350. I have gotten it to turn over but there is never the right idle and has no throttle response. Pulled spark plugs, 3-4-5-6 cylinders aren't hitting. changed out injectors-no fix. Coils are good, fuel pressure is at 59 psi. Any suggestions why it might be misfiring? I also spliced in new injector pig tails.

Have you moved the spark plug wires around to see if the problem follows? Spark plugs good? Fouled?

what harness are you using? There will be two switched power wires going to coils.. sounds like either a fuse is blown or there is a break in the connection on the coil pack harness
