What about the key head?

key head is still the same programed to the bcm and computer thats in there

check all the plugs, ground points, if in doubt dc them make sure they're clean, not corroded or bent pins causing a bad connection.... dfi module, crank sensor, oil switch & main gnd from batt to engine block? you only swapped the motor so it's possibly a bad connection somewhere.... maybe a bad sensor in the donor engine

done all the checks on every connection and wire engine ran fine in donor car and i drove it to work in diagnostics mode and back no issue everything worked fine i had a tech 2 tool pluged in and it came up with security and stuck in 3rd but again all works 100% in diagnostics go figure
