ok i just got done puttin my swap in and turned it over and it wouldnt start so I checked the spark and the spark is good....there is fuel in the lines but not in the cyclenders...and i put a meter to the injector plug and the one side had 12v and the other side was dead......could it be a bad ground or what?................

The "other side" is connected to the ecu and is provided a path to ground when the ECU wants that injector to fire. It should read dead. Check your resistor pack and make sure it's working properly. Are the fuel lines hooked up the right way? There is a certain direction that they need to be hooked up in. Are you sure the injectors are good?
