so IS IT CRANKING, or does it want to crank but IS NOT CRANKING?
cause those are two totally different problems with totally different paths of figuring it out... and front the sound of it, you've replaced a lot of parts that would fall under either one or the other...
I guess what I'm trying to say is could you better explain your symptoms with a little more clarity? it will probably help get better and quicker help for you.

well for starters... never once have I seen any LS problem ever be fixed or even made slightly better by the coils and plugs just being "cleaned"
especially if you've have a misfire bad enough to destroy a cat. dirty coils was not your problem.
air, fuel, spark, and compression. that is what you need to run. probably best to test something out instead of throwing parts at it in order to figure out which and how many pieces of the puzzle you're missing.
