No fuel out of the headers? Why would there be fuel in the headers?
I'm going out on a limb and saying ur getting air and spark, but no fuel?
What all did you switch out? Short block only or block, heads, intake, fuel system, tune ect.

Does your gas smell like varnish or gasoline? Had trouble starting mine and had to evacuate the whole tank. Fresh gas and a bottle of red stabil fired right up.
Also check your camshaft position sensor (back of the block near oil pressure sensor). Accidentally switched the camshaft position sensor and MAP sensors on mine. That was hell tracing with blank replacement connectors and matching wires.

Modern gasoline has a crazy short shelf life. Heard its like 30 days from the pump. Something about the ethanol separating.
Drain your tank completely, dump a bottle of the red sta-bil in the tank, then at least 5 Gal of gas behind it. Red sta-bil can be found at any parts store.
