Exclamation no fuel

I swapped out my 3.9 for a 5.9 this weekend, now I cannot get a signal from the gas tank/ fuel pump. Nor do I get a spark. What have I done wrong? I switched out the PCM and I still get nothing with the old PCM. Only changes to the wiring was the 7 & 8 injectors. I need help fast!

It seems that when you put in the motor, you would be wise to remove the crank sensor. In my excitement (and because I had to do it by myself) I sandwiched the crank sensor between the block and trans. Thus, truck is unhappy. I will get it fixed tomorrow and hopefully I'll be happy with that monster of a motor
