Default Died and wont restart.

I changed the oil, changed the camshaft position sensor, changed the low pressure switch on the ac, have the door windows out to tint them, started it after adding the oil and it started right up, after about 30 seconds I reved it to about 1200-1500rpms to circulate the oil, about 3 seconds after hitting the throttle it died and wont restart.

Might sound stupid but did you fill the oil filter when you changed the oil. The reason I ask is because if the lpop is worn out the hpop will empty the reservoir before it gets oil pumped up to it. I could be wrong about the lpop being worn but every engine at work that did this had low oil press.

Yeah I filled it, took almost a 1/2 gallon, found the problem, the wires to the cam sensor went bad and were grounding to eachother, now just to figure out if it is easily repairable.
