Default ls6 conversion problem

I have put a ls6 out of a Cadillac CTSv into my 67 Camaro. I got ready to start it and it fired right up and then died right after. Come to find out it was cutting off the injectors so I assumed the company didn't take the vats off so I sent it back to them but they were actually*removed. Does anyone know of any other things that would cause this. I do have a Cadillac CTSv pedal and throttle body with a corvette pcm

I had done a swap a few years back and had a similar problem. Turned out to be problem with voltage to injector power source. Power source needs to be a constant 11.7 or higher. Preferably 12.4 volts or they will shut down. Cause was a small gauge power source wire that would reduce running voltage down under 12.4 when motor/ECM was on. Cure was increasing wire to 12g and giving it a direct fused connection to a clean battery source. Also used a noid light to check injector wire operation and made sure fuel pressure remained at required 58psi during running.

Keep in mind this is assuming your VATS is actually removed. Good luck.

My 02 c-5 swap was the column lock. Same thing as you said and vats was turned off. But not the column lock.

This. VATS can be off, but incorrect column lock will still screw it up.
