I will check the grounds again, I did put a jumper on the primary ground last night to ensure solid connectivity with no response. As I recall I had one ground strap on the passenger side (bolts to one of the tranny bolts), and then 1 heavy gauge/1 smaller gauge ground that bolted to the lower block on the driver side.

I have not yet checked the fuel pressure, it is strong at the incoming line purge valve. The intake and injectors on the motor now are the ones that came on the new engine, I did swap the coil packs (the ones on the new motor appeared to have been exposed to heavy moisture). Thank you for your response. I've yet to be defeated on a repair/swap...this will not be the first one!
