I desperately need help. I have a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 V10. Motor blew so I bought a replacement from a 1995 Dodge Ram V10. I realize the replacement is OBD1 and it has EGR valve. So I switched Intake Manifolds complete with fuel rails and throttle bodies and passenger side exhaust manifold. I also switched crank sensor and cam sensor. Once complete attempted start. Getting fuel but no fire to plugs. Pulled one plug and verified. Was told that if cam sensor was not installed correctly that damage would occur to sensor which of course would cause the no fire. Then I was told that it was more serious that I now had to remove the front of the engine in order to change something called the firing ring on the front of the camshaft that the 1995 and the 1999 used different rings. Is any of this true? Please please help clarify this for me. My truck has been down for 2-months.

ok, new to the board here...
been a mechanic over 13 yrs. have some common knowledge of the industry
i have my own shop and can usually figure things out on my own, but i'm going out on a limb here because i'm despereate.
1996 dodge ram 2500 v10 8.0 liter.....
towed in, cranks but no start.
...no spark
... no fuel
replaced ecm with aftermarket part from fisher
truck starts but shuts right off
heard a relay clicking under hood...found later to be TRANS RELAY
(THIS IS WHERE STUFF GETS WEIRD)......
removed relay and truck started and stayed running....test drive
runs good ...stutters every 3-4 seconds, shifts ok
got back to the shop shut off truck and no start again....
reinstalled trans relay.....still no start
installed new crank sensor from dodge....no start
no injector pulse
no spark
fuel pump runs 45psi at rail
battery fully charged
cranks ok
tested 5v to cam and crank sensors, ground good,
HOW DO I TEST SIGNAL FROM CRANK AND CAM
any ideas what to do next?
i've been reading alot of threads and topics.. " hey you" seems to know his s**t.....
TIA.....ttrash

on this diagram it looks like the green and orange wires from both coil packs intersect but i have no idea where this little connector goes or if its a ground or not.
