With the good there is always some bad to come along with it.
When I was wiring the 12v acc trigger wire for the ECM and intergraded Relay box I was meet with some head scratching. Luckily I was only testing the trigger wire at the time and once I put the wire to a 12v source the wire instantly turned red hot and burned my fingers. Thinking I had the wrong wire I checked the wiring diagram again but came to the same white wire with red strip. followed the wire back to the Relay box and made sure it was triggering the right blade on the relays (5). all was good... Ground, constant 12v, and power out wires where all in the right place as well. no fuses had blown either. I ended up phoning in a friend. Mr. Koch, he came over and had the idea to check the relays to make sure they where not having internal issues. A few would ohm out correctly but the others had an open circuit, so we took all of them out of the box left them out and put power to the trigger wire and it had no reaction, all pointing to the relays. We tried one at a time in the box all would create the same short. took a relay out of Mr. Koch's chevy volt put it in and it worked as it should. The relay CLICKED and the ECM came to life!! So off to the store to buy all new relays.
The next problem I came across was a CAM Fault and Sync Fault light. Another head scratcher. started checking the simple things, but couldn't find any issues right off the bat. Started brain storming with Mr. Koch again. he had the idea to check the wires to make sure I'm getting 5v power, sensor ground and a signal wire in the connector. on my initial inspection of the connector i had 5v on both outer pins and ground in the middle. Exactly what the diagram shows for the cam sensor plug. Then Koch had the idea to follow the wires back to the ECM and be sure that the 5v source and signal wires are not backwards like a LS1 cam sensor would need. Well turns out AMP EFI makes them all for a LS1 style cam sensor even when you buy the harness for a 58 tooth crank. After switching the pins around the CAM and SYNC fault where gone! car was running even better the before with no cam signal.
With the cam signal not working I also had a no start when hot I was fighting, luckily fixing the cam wiring fixed that issue as well!
Now with the simple issues out of the way we can start street tuning the thing!!
