I rebuilt my 5.7 liter v.8 and i can't figure it out. it runs fine when it is cold but cuts out when it warms up. i suspect it is a timing issue because it keeps sending a trouble code saying the cam sensor and crank sensor are not corralating. the sensors work fine. unless they are not working properly which i cannot test for.

The timing on these engines cannot be set without using a scan tool capable of doing so. Your timing is probably off a little. Unless you have a $15000 scan tool, a dealer is usually the only place that has a scan tool capable of setting the timing ..Also if you replaced the crank sensor you should have a crank relearn procedure done at the dealer also..
