Assuming the engine oil is full and the newer IPR is working, have you checked the wiring on the IPR to make sure it's not chaffed or the insulation isn't brittle? Can you monitor IPR duty % while cranking? Is there any oil in the bottom of your fuel filter bowl?

If you've got the parts, stick a 3,000 psi gauge in one head and block off the high pressure oil line to the other head. See what kind of pressure you get while cranking. Keep in mind it may start on only one bank, so if you don't want it firing up on half the cylinders disconnect the CPS or pull a fuse. If one bank builds pressure and the other does not, time for injector o-rings.
Its got new injectors installed. Had a hard start problem for a long time when it finally craped out this last time i figured it was a good time for injectors so those are new and it still doesnt run. What i cant figure out is if i am only getting 156 rpms showing from the scanner while cranking then the icp is going to lower than 500PSI at cranking? What is the cranking rpm suppost to be?
