What PCM are you running? Unplug the MAF and try to start it.

Stock but tables are all already tuned for the l67 stuff, we tried unplugging the MAF. Its definitely a timing issue.

Not sure if a topswap takes the same timing as an L67, I would imagine it would though. I have about 20* at idle and 18.5* @ WOT FWIW.

Good luck narrowing it down, patience is key. I had about 8 hours into a timing belt replacement before and had to tear it all down again because it was one tooth off. Relax and you'll get it figured out.

Timing doesnt matter now as the SC isnt hooked up. Im going to try the sensor first and see what that gets me.
