I recently replaced the head gaskets and cylinder heads on the vehicle listed above.. What could cause the no crank no start issue?

Hello,

So, when you try to start it, what does the vehicle do?
Does it make clicking noise?

Just to so we cover the basics, have you tried to jump start it?

No crank, no start can be due to faulty starter, bad ignition switch or a weak battery.

Let me know a little more details of what you are experiencing.

Thank you.

If the starter is good, then you would need to take a look at the starter relay as well as the diode for the relay. See attached. diagram.
