The cam was set with number one I&E lobes pointing obliquely upward (11 and 1 oclock) while the cam wheel mark was at TDC, coincident with TDC marks lining up on the crank.
I believe the car would start if I can figure out what is wrong with the fuel pump relay. There is either a missing ground, or a missing trace current from the ignition. But I do not know which contacts those are. Once I can determine what is missing, I might be able to figure out why it is missing, such as a missed connection in the engine compartment when I swapped motors. I will try to lift the relay board today as suggested and test connections.
Up to the moment the engine cratered on the highway last March it was running fine, all relays and electrics were fully functional, which leads me to believe it is something I screwed up in the motor swap and re-connection.
