Default 05 f150 5.4 timing issues

We just finished replacing everything in the timing (chains, phasers, VCT's crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor). The truck initially started and ran rough for a few minutes. Turned it off and now it will not start at all. Any suggestions?

Double check your crankshaft sensor. This is a start/no start sensor. I have seen them bad right out of the box

There is compression in the engine. It's sparking and you can here the fuel pump kick on.

Try using starting fluid through the air cleaner while someone cranks the motor. If it fires you have a fuel issue.
