Welcome to the forum, engine cranking, do you have spark at the plugs? Are there any trouble codes? Use a gage and check fuel pressure.

Scan for codes and check fuelpressure first. Should be 41-47 psi cross a&b on aldl below lh dash by steering column count light flashes in series of 3 if it's 12 that is normal for key on and reading light.

Scan for codes, and check fuel pressure first. Check to see if you are getting spark. If you think it is a fuel issue, use a gauge and check fuel pressure. If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs.

Good question, I'm not sure unfortunately I did not install the headers so I'm not sure where the 02 Sensors were installed. I have uploaded some pics for better view.

Thanks you so much....
