Default heads and cam problems HELP

I just got done with my heads and cam swap.
The car will not run on its own, i have to hold the gas to keep it going?
My Tach doesn't work i have no clue why not but it has to be something simple like i forgot to plug something in.
I am going to go back in and replace my spark plugs, replace my header gaskets, and retighten the bolts up too the headers

most heads and cam swaps require a tune, especially on automatic cars. without more info on what you had and what you have it really is hard to say

umm sounds light you didn't plug in your cam sensor. double check it, that might be your problem. or maybe missing one of the grounds that bolt to the back of the heads..should be 3 grounds.

Both grounding bolts are on the driver's side head in the back.
Where is the cam sensor located?
