Re: Motor ran until after re install.
I've had this car almost 6 months lol. I've done motor swaps out of other cars before though. I bought this as a summer car just to dick around with and build during winter. And here i am mid summer with a wireing problem I probably won't have solved until winter lol.what are the absolute basics to run this car, what sensors absolutely need plugged in and where are all the grounds for everything motor and transmission related (borg and warner 6spd).
The engine needs the Mass Air Flow sensor, the Coolant Temp sensor (on the water pump), the Manifold Absolute Pressure, and both Oxygen sensors at a minimum.
Back to your no-spark condition, also check the ICM (Ignition Control Module) located on the front of the drivers side cylinder head. I think Rob has a test protocol on his website.... shbox.com

Re: Motor ran until after re install.
Provlem solved. When I took my alternator off to have more room while doing my intake gasket and valve cover gaskets i must have put it back on with the opti spark plug for the small wire harness under the alternator. I couldn't even see it until i looked at a wire diagram on that shbox.com Has spark now. Need a new opti and wires. Thanks for the help guys
