'91 Camaro-Cranks over-No Start-Help!!

Good evening! I am a new member to the group although been reading posts for years. I have a '91 Camaro Z28 5.7L w/ 700R4 Transmission. The car has been sitting on jack stands in my garage for about 6 years (not started or ran for the entire time). Transmission was shot and had a fuel issue. I thought was the fuel pump. I have removed the entire underside of the car and replaced most parts. Trans rebuilt (Corvette parts inside), new fuel tank, pump, rubber hoses, fuel filter. I am now ready to start and test drive the car. I put premium fuel in the tank, new oil and filter, new coolant & hoses, new emission hoses, new distributor cap & rotor, spark plugs, new battery. The car will turn over but will not run. I have spark @ the spark plugs. I replaced the fuel pressure regulator tonight after finding the fuel pressure would drop with KO/EO. Fuel Pressure is now at 44 lbs and holds steady. I tested the injector electrical connections with an injector node tester. Lights up and blinks as expected. Pulled the spark plugs to check for flooding or any indication of fuel - No fuel present on the plugs. Is it possible that all 8 injectors are bad??? I have never seen that happen, but it has been sitting for 6 years. Any ideas on what could possibly be causing the car to not start - no fuel to cylinders??? Thank you in advance tor any help!!!

Gawd! That split loom. *hurl*. Please remove all that horrible noise.

And your injectors are shot.

You've eliminated all possible causes except the injectors themselves.
