It could be either a cam or crank sensor related fault. If you're using all the original sensors and wiring and they worked fine on the other engine there isn't a real reason for the non-start. Try checking all the harness connections, paying particular attention to the engine harness earthing point. If you dont have one, earth out the engine to the chassis. My feeling is there is something loose, missed when rebuilding the powerplant. Check the pickup for the crank sensor, too.
Hope this helped...
The Engine Control Unit continuously receives information from sensors on the cam and crank shafts. This code indicates that there was an intermittent loss of signal from one or other of these sensors due to a sensor fault or a loose connection. If the fault persists the ECU will loose track of the relative position of the crank and cam and this will give rise to erratic engine firing. Try thoroughly cleaning the contacts within the electrical connectors to these sensors and see if this resolves the issue.
The 3.9L 5.2L and 5.9L engine use the distributor assembly as your cam sensor . The crank sensor is on right rear attached to engine block (behind cylinder head)
I had the same problem on a 94 dodge with the cummins. It seems the crank sensor that reads from a notch on the harmonic balancer was the problem Without this sensor reading that the engine is running the alternator wont charge. Possibly the same problem with yours
