I recently finished wiring up my car from scratch and I am now having a few difficulties getting the engine to turn over even though it should.

I think the problem lies somewhere in my fuel system. When I supply the fuel pump power, it continues to pump as long as i feed it power. Shouldn't the pump stop once the system pressurizes or am I mistaken here? I can hear the fuel cycling through the rail, past the regulator, and into the return line continuously and I can feel fuel flowing through both fuel lines.

Just in case the stock system shuts the fuel pump off after a few seconds, I tried flipping it on for a sec and then off and tried to start, but once again the engine just cranks.

I have spark at all 4 coil packs, the engine is a "new" used engine with perfect compression, and I know everything is hooked up correctly as I have done many SR swaps.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

check your timing, i forget how to do the sr timing, encountered problems like this before, it's always my timing (usually)

i checked the timing and replaced my FPR and same exact problem. Fuel keeps cycling through the line and it won't turn over.

Any more ideas?
