Wait you got it towed back to your house from their shop? And they did the swap and battery relocation? Why?

yea i got it towed back home cuz they were leaning towards the issue being the timing but my mechanic did the timing according to the book , top dead center and left cam gear at 11pm and right cam gear at 1pm so im confident timing isnt the issue . and they were going to charge me too much to diagnose it so i decided to just tow it home , i did a 1uz swap and the battery gets in the way in the bay so they relocated it to my trunk

Charge you for what? You payed them to do the swap, and they relocated the battery as part of it? It's their job to get it running. You need to get it back and tell them to finish the job. If they think that physically setting the motor in the bay and plugging it in is all they have to do, that's a joke.

they thought issue was timing and the shop that did the swap said they dont do internal work , so the guy that wired up the car for me at their shop was going to charge me $85 an hour to diagnose the issue and he said it would be roughly 3 hours .so thats $255 just to " diagnose it" then from there whatever it costs to fix

Why did they open it up then if they don't do internal work? They could've made it worse for all you know. But the 3 hours to diagnose a no start is absolutely rediculous. Pretty incompetent shop, non the less trying to take advantage of you. Sounds more like they don't know what do to, so they said they'll do it for a lot of extra money hoping you'd say no. I'd suggest a talk with whoever runs that place to finish the job
