-Do you have a catalytic converter?
-Did you run the vacuum lines correctly, and retain the sensor that sits on the top of your intake manifold (I guess that would depend on the type of head you are using).
-Is your IACV hooked up correctly?
-What trim level is the car the engine is in, and what ecu are you using?
-the answers to these questions will help me get an idea of whats going on. Thanks1

What harness are you using? The catalyst code could just be due to the converter being, well, old. I had a '98 RS that had this code, and it did not go away until I replaced the cat. Is your cat oem? Sorry for all of the questions, but its hard to correctly diagnose over the internet unless you have a lot of information IMO.
