Angry 4.6L Swap - Missing Something???

I am installing a 4.6L in my 53 F-100. I cannot get it to start. I can spray gas direct into the intake and the motor will run for a second or two but the injectors never release gas into the intake. I have the complete wiring harness, solenoids, and fuel system from the donor vehicle. I have good pressure on the fuel rail. I have only one hard code 565 - canister purge valve circuit open. I have beaten my head black and blue trying to figure out what is happening. Does anyone have a clue?? What makes the PCM fire the fuel injectors?

HELP!!!
