Hmm was wondering if you were having any luck. But if its getting fuel and spark pretty much has to be something in the tune. Or some fuse or something not connected.

Might be best to just relax and not worry till tommorrow. You did all the hard work, engine in, new turbos in. Its got to be something pretty minor.

Is this something to do with the ls2 crank. You need some spacer or something? Its not a pilot bearing thing? I didn't seem to have any issues with the 408 iron block swap.

Maybe you can just take off trans put in spacer and go on your way. Maybe it didn't hurt anything or have you confirmed it did ? If it hurt a bearing can one be put in from bottom?

Hope you have some good luck there Tom.
