    Yes the cel comes on and stays on, but the led on the ecu doesn't come on if I don't jump the main relay. If I DO jump the main relay, the main relay itself clicks once, the cel AND the led on the ecu comes on for about 2 seconds, then the main relay clicks again and the cel and the led on the ecu turns off...so if I send power to the trigger wire on the main relay, Yes the ecu gets power. This is the stock wiring harness that came on the single cam.
    I think it could definatley be a wire that has been pinched and grounding itself out. About how long is the led in the ecu supposed to stay lit up?

    Do you get power to the ecu? when you turn the key on does the light on the ecu blink once? Are you using the original motor harness?

    I had something like this happen to me years ago.
    It turned out to be a pinched wire grounding out.
