Default Help needed

I'm having problems with my C5 LS3 Swap. I got everything together and the car started up and ran fine last saturday. Sunday morining I go to start the car so I can add Trans fluid and she wouldn't stay running. Everything was fine from one minuet to the next.

I just checked the codes and I'm only gettin P0336 which is Crankshaft Position Performance. I've got the Lingenfelter box and its powering up like its supposed to. I've also noticed the fuel pressure drops off then comes back up and repeats.

Any help is appreciated. I'll be tuning the car Febuary 3rd so I need it running before then.

Thanks
Steven

Re check the connector to the sensor, check grounds make sure they are tight. If the sensor is not new, may need to replace...............

A guy I work with has an LS3 in his C5. I saw your post and asked him about it today. He said it sounds like it is most likely your tune. It needs to be set to LS3 parameters instead of the LS1.

I'll be getting the LS3 parameters flashed to my pcm tomorrow to see if that fixes it.
