After checking all injectors and ignition outputs I decided to, just for the hell of it, crank the car over with no fuel or ignition and set the ecu into "oscilloscope mode". With this you can actually see the crank and cam signals as you crank the car over. Sure enough looking at it I had the cam sync stabbed so that at 70* btdc is was on rising edge not falling edge. That woulda been a problem. So I got the motor to 70* and re clocked the cam sync so that it was at signal falling. Hooked up fuel and park and she fired up. Seems a little lean but it held an idle with a little throttle opening. I was alone and the motor isn't completely filled with water since doing the intake, so I only ran it a minute. Need to get water in it and get it to hold an idle so I can check timing. The tb is as it was set from Motion Raceworks, so it may just need some more throttle screw. Just have to mess with it.
Here is the proper oscilloscope trace. The straight up and down orange lines are cam sygnal. It's a 12v signal and it goes up off the scale and then comes back down. The alternating pos and neg signal (green) is the VR crank signal. The crank signals are 90* apart because it is a 4 magnet crank. The crank reference angle I set to 50* and cam is set to 70* and digital failing. So on this trace you can see the vertical line approximately 20* before a crank signal. This is the cam signal going from 12v down to zero volts(digital falling), this falling signal tells the ecu that the next crank signal it will see in approximately 20* is cylinder number 1.
