Icon2 CB7 IGNITION NO SPARK PROBLEMS

So check this out i have a 1990 accord 5 speed. It acted like the coil went out.
It cranks but doesnt start. Has fuel but no spark.
Here's where I'm at with it:

rebuilt the distributor with new coil, ignitor, cap, and rotor.
the main relay clicks, runs the fuel pump, and clicks it off
no cel codes
gets power to coil and ignitor

this leads me to believe im looking at one of three things; either a grounding issue, a bad crank position sensor, or an issue in the wiring.

Any ideas?

Forgot to ever update this thread. The culprit was indeed a bad ground. It was the thermostat grounding point.
