Default 5.3 wont start

ok, I am trying to get my 5.3 to run in my S10...it will crank, but wont start. I have a new crank sensor/ECT sensor/cam sensor. there is spark at the plugs, I have checked the grounds and the ign wires. I made sure that the ign wires stayed on when I try to crank and the constant power stays on as well. EFI Live will communicate with the ECM and VATS is disabled. there is fuel at the fuel rail, but the injectors will not fire....

I am totally confused with this...someone please help.

I think mine was doing something similar. I had a bad ground from the engine to the body..once I ran a ground wire from the engine to the firewall, it fired right up...maybe thats all it is.

well...thanks for you input....I ended up putting a different set of injectors in it and it fired right up....I guess the original injectors were stuck..

sounds awesome.
thanks, hope to have some vids and more pics later
