Default almost running! help!

ok so the head gaskets are both done, the car is fully assembled..and...it doesnt fire. it'll turn over and it just wont start. it supposedly isnt throwing any codes and the opti has been in it for maybe 300 miles. someone help me before i buy a honda. you guys wouldnt want to be responsible for another honda driver WOULD YOU?!?!?!

COULD the opti have taken a ****?

Fuel? Injectors?

People need to stop blaming the opti for everything.

if they had the heads off it means they had the coil off too...make sure both the coil and icm are plugged in, made that mistake before. (drivers side head)
