Oh its ran before I just had problems with the ECU cutting out at 1600rpms. In the process of diagnosing the problem the ECU stopped connecting to my laptop. So I'm hoping the engine cut problem is cleared up with the ECU finally at 100%. I'll let you know when I receive it. It's on its way from CA.

F**K THE SYSTEM!!
Is the car ready to attempt some maps and trying to start? Those basic maps can go a long way because every little setting is important. The next thing would be to sinc/zero timing.(very important) Then make some basic calculation for primary injectors. Shouldn't be too hard as long as you have a good base map and know how to zero timing.

Right. Timing sync is at the top of my list. Unfortunately I don't have access to one any more, friend moved away, so that's the next purchase I need to make. Everything else should be set. Fuel calculations, wide band settings, I've gone through them so many times it's a breeze.

SOOO, Synced up the timing and the problem still persist. I noticed on the digital timing light that the voltage was really low while running. The battery started out at 13.6 and after a short time of idling it was down too 10.X volts which leads me to believe its the alternator. Its odd though, the voltage at alternator starts at 14.6 then after about 10-15 seconds it was down in the 13s range and kept falling. Never seen one do that before. So I'm debating buying a cheap one or having mine rebuilt in jacksonville with a higher output like IRP sells.

Tony was who did mine when I still had my baby... It was pretty good... Least I thought so. I heard Norman got out of building them. But who knows how correct what I hear is anymore...

Thanks zzeeexlover, hopefully I get the ball rolling and get this car on the road soon!
Also, I would definitely love to see a meet! Not sure how many 7s are up and running locally but I see maybe a few at Cars and Coffee downtown.
