Icon6 My Ls/Vtec isn't starting. Need Help

Had a Ls motor running fine but the timing belt looked like it was ready to give out on me. Had a b16 head and complete ls/v golden eagle kit layin aroung. To make a long story short. I did the headswap. Using a chipped ecu that worked perfectly fine on an old car i had. Timing is on point. All my Grounds are straight. Fuel is gettin up to the rail. Cranks, but just wont fire up. i put the obd2 p75 in just to see if the computer was the problem still..no firing up.

Need some advice people..thanks.

Make sure you have spark, and that your injectors are pulsing properly.

Does the car sound strong when it is turning over? Also any ideas if the distributor you are using on the B16 head is ok? Good luck!

If you do indeed have spark, Then you would've had to get the timing off somewhere. Do some more testing, then get back at us.

check your grounds, I had a problem starting my car a long time ago, it would crank but never turned. Finally I checked my ground from the chassis to the tranny, it was loose so i tighten it. Went to turn it over and voila, it started. Hope that helped.
