Did you try to start it with the tune/map on the ECU still from the previous motor?

The engine shop did. Pretty sure they were not interested in it starting. More concerned with checking fuel pressure and oil pressure before dyno run in

Really just want to put a praise out about Neil Herbert and Juan at the Engine Shop.

They didnt only strip down and remachine the poor machining from another company, Juan took the job on personally and went above and beyond to build this engine up with absolute attention to detail. Without asking (or paying) they have soda blasted my block and painted it (and looks perfect) the wiring has all been cleaned up and engine bay pressure washed to name a few things. They also refurbished my header tank which looks fantastic. The engine bay looks exceptionally clean.

They kept me informed of every hurdle and even sent me progress pictures. Great to chat with and always felt welcomed at the shop.
I have dealt with alot of engine builders in my time (namely LSX builders) and i have never enjoyed dealing with a builder as much as i have these guys.

Highly highly recomend them!
