Hi!
Have you remembered to refit the earth from the coil plate to the cylinder head?-- this completes the coil circuit to enable the coils to produce a spark-.. no earth--no sparks.

I think this was the problem there were two wires (four wires on two eye connectors) that hook up to the bottom of the intake manifold i had one on the firewall and one on the starter i put them on the intake double checked the timing and it fired right up =) ive put about 150 miles on her and she is still running strong Wooohooo!
