This is assuming you don't have any mechanical issues. Did you remove the charge motion plate when you installed the intake?
the intake removes the plates.

I will check the coils.

thank you

I suppose it could be a problem with your rebuilt auto or the torque converter, but I know nothing about automatic transmissions, so my guess is still a misfire.

What happens from a dead stop, if you stomp on it? Or is that what you were doing in the video?

Another thing. Is your alternator stock? When the stock alternators fail, they can wreck havoc on the cam shaft sensors. It will eventually set a p0340 code, but it could take awhile.

One other thing, when's the last time you changed the fuel filter? I would go ahead and change it anyway, since you said the car sat for 3 months. Also your gas can go bad after sitting for 3 months

Brakes dragging? Exhaust blocked?

* UPDATE *

we disconnected fuse #47 and the car ran perfectly fine.

The fuse seems alright.

What should I look into now?

thanks a lot

Well that seems odd. It didn't set a code? What was fuse 47 for?
