no drive side fuel...

i have a 98 trans am i just put in a heads, cam, intake, tb, exhaust, etc etc. i started it up and it wont run on its own but if i get it started and try giving it some rpm it'll get a lil fuel to the driver side. the driver side header is cold to the touch and i cant even get close to the passenger side header. i've tried 2 harness's and 2 computers and still no fuel. any help is greatly appreciated. thanks

Is there power on the injector plugs? The PCM fires the injectors by grounding them, so you need power going to one side of the plug.

Are you sure it's fuel? Have you checked for spark on the dead side also?

I believe there is a fuse for each side of the engine, either fuel or spark, not sure which, but the guys who swap ls1's into v6 cars have a similar issue, and they have to add some wires to the body harness.
