Default ls motor back in ls and not starting

ok i have the stock motor bolted back in my car and when i go to start it everything sounds good and it just wont hit. if you throw some gas in the intake it will hit but other than that it wont start. gas is flowing through rail and the pump is pumping. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Does it crank? If it does but doest start check you distrib. To see if its all the way one there you could have the thing that turns on the distrib up side down. OR could be a bad ground.

Check to make sure that you bolted up the ground wire by the thermostat-then check all of your connectors.

All of the connectors on the shock towers. Usually when something like this happens, it is something simple that you overlook. When you finally find it, it's like duh!

I would check all your grounds and make sure they are tight that stupid tranny ground wasn't completly tight for me once and the would start but run like crap and I luckily stumbled acrossed it acidently and it made me feel like a complete jackass also check to make sure the ecu is plug in all the way. that is if you are getting spark, fuel, and compression.
