I don't know about the later cars, but in the late 3rd gens the VATS module told the computer to pulse the injectors, and it also grounded the the starter relay, so if the later cars are similar, that could be your problem. I can look in my service manual when I get home to verify, but that sounds like what your issue is. I have a service manual for a 99 F-body.
If you don't care about security, I would just ground the relay at that pin and be done with it.
Pin 85 would be power for the relay, and 30 would be power for the starter solenoid, so 85 should only be powered when you're cranking
