Ok I am having a problem starting my hemi in my 72 challenger. Here's a little background. I bought a 2004 Durango that didn't run but I was going to get the engine rebuilt. I had the engine rebuilt and put it into the car. I had a new wiring harness built and I got a computer out of a 2005 Ram with a 5.7 Hemi. The computer was flashed and I had it double checked and the computer is not the problem. I put all new sensors and multiple times understanding a new sensor could still be bad. I replaced the Crank shaft sensor 3 times and the Cam shaft sensor twice. I also replaced the throttle body twice because the first one came from Rock auto and was told their electronic parts weren't that dependable. It sometimes take up to a minute or more to start then it runs ok but a fuel injector engine should start up right away. The only code I get is for the Crank shaft sensor. Any and all help will be appreciated. I have a video of it starting but it is too big to post on this forum.

You may need to look at your 5V reference wire on the crank sensor. If this wire has a short to ground, then it may give you funky readings. Who built your harness?
