Crossfire problems or no?

Spun a bearing in my 82 Collector. The guys pulled the motor, replaced needed parts, got it all put back together. Went over to their shop to hear it run before they put it back in. After getting it back in it won’t stay running but maybe 3 seconds, then shuts off. Any ideas?

IF they forgot to plug in the oil pressure sender back by the dist, the CPU shuts the engine down if it doesnt see oil pressure at startup....................

It's on the drivers side at the very back and has 3 prongs on it.
