we may know but i still dont understand why you told us it had ground control coilovers, roll cage or bride seats. maybe those went bad causing you to not have a spark?

lol i see these guys are giving you a tough time, ill give u some pointers...make sure the three grounds are connected (tranny*most important*, valve cover, and thermostat) make sure ur firing order is right. if all is good, take a spark plug out and have a friend hold the plug agenst the valve cover while u crank the motor over and see if u are actually getting any spark or not...lemme know
