Default Fuel pump relay hot

Hey guys new to the page but in need of help. I’ve got a 94 Ram 1500 v8 5.9l 2wd gas hog as I call it. But I’ve came across a problem after changing the transmission it takes longer to start. So as times goes I noticed while in park n idling my rpm goes up n down over n over. Now it doesn’t do this every time jus here n there. Then the other week I turn down a back road n my truck dies. I set there for a few checked all fuses n wires n got back inside n he started right up. Got it to my friend house and it was good. So hours later I go home n no problem. Then next day after it gets warm it dies. This time I noticed my relay was warm to my fuel pump so I changed them around and it started. So I keep doing this till I’m over it tired of doing it. So I changed plugs, wires, distributor, rotor , module, ignition coil, did TDC , and I thought I had it fix until tonight! On my way home it died!
So after setting there till it cooled down and cranked up n got my home. Now I left out the part when I left it running n ran in store n back out and the rpm hand was going crazy n shut off.?. And I’m getting code 11 and 37 as always and 32. My egr is new well everything on the truck is new but the motor and the pcm but I have one a used one. And the pump is new. I’m thinking it’s the fuel pump bc it’s the only thing I haven’t changed again and the relay being hot. Am I right.?.? Or am I doing this all wrong?

Did you remove the crank position sensor before doing the trans R&R? It is frequently a victim when the trans is put back in.....

11 No ignition reference signal detected during cranking (bad Hall effect) OR loss of camshaft sensor
54 No cam signal at PCM
Since you have two codes for the cam sensor i would look to see if you pinched the wire going to it. It's possible you got it caught between the engine and the trans. Not sure if the OBD1's act the same as OBD2's but the cam sensor is used only to start the engine. I would look at the back of the motor and see if anything got pinched.
