need some fast help. lt1/m6 swap into Iroc.

Friend is working on a lt1 swap into an 86 iroc.

Everything, including the entire lt1 harness came from a 95 Z.

Apparently has everything hooked up the way it should be, starts it, it runs cleanly for about a second or two then shuts off like a switch.

What could be the problem here, and how can I help him fix it?

That would be the VATS shutting the engine off. Either you can buy a VATS module and have problems like alot, or have it programmed out of the computer.
