Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

You should really just add on to your other threads, instead of making tons of new ones.


But anyway, do you have spark and fuel? All connectors plugged in?

What do you mean locks?
 
Check for fuel at the rail? Does the fuel pump even run?

Double check all spark wire routing, you might have it wrong.


I mean you did just do a top swap, so you should have some of this down.
 




if the coupler is good, them its probably the bearings gone bad.

it maybe cheaper to just get a used blower and slap it on.
 
500 mile break in? theres no break in for a top swap.

back in the day you had to break in the cam and lifters, being we use roller lifters you dont need to break them in at all.

that goes if you have a whole new engine, bottom end to top, its go or blow, some say driving it like you stole it right out of the box sets the rings better as well.

no amount of babying the car will save it is something is not right.


in your case you may just want to pull the belt off the sc, if the rotors are touching it could send metal chips into he engine.
 


if the coulper is tight feeling still, then you would need to take it off and take it apart to inspect it.

if the sound is gone with the sc belt off you know its related.
