See if the thing is firing, if not, well there are quite a few posts indicating how easy it is to bend a couple of the flywheel tabs making it hard for the crank position sensor to read the position of the crankshaft.

The Flywheel is brand new, and great care was taken to set it gently down.
Not even a sputter. Just turns over smooth.

Let me guess: an aftermarket lightweight flywheel......

No. OEM from Pelican as part of a master kit. DMF
CPS ohms exactly as described above. Will reinstall.
Used a color inspection camera and looked at all the teeth on the flywheel. They are right there and perfect.
Thanks.

Just used an inspection camera and checked all the way around. Perfect.
Just need to find a CPS local. Don't know how to bench test it.

If you have a Ohm meter, pull the connector and put probes into pin 1 and 2 you should read around 800-1000 ohms, then repeat the same test for pin1 and 3 and it should show infinite (meaning open/as if not touching). If either of these is not the case I would replace the CPS.
Hope that helps
