You didn’t mention anything about fuel pressure or checking the fuel pump. Check that.

Sounds like it may be the ECM. It's behind the glove box. Injectors are triggered by a ground pulse so check the input grounds to the ECM. Alldata and the factory service manual have detailed diagnostic trees to help you figure it out

Easy to do and not expensive. If you followed the "bible" you would know it's easy because to test the inputs and output requires removal so it sounds like you have been throwing parts at it rather than  following the diagnostic tree
