Default Have fuel but no fire??

Ok, so I just got my LS/Vtec turbo ready and got everything hooked up. It is getting fuel, but doesn't get any fire at all. Motor doesn't wanna turn over or anything. I have checked the grounds and they are all connected. I just put another ignition module and coil in the distributor before building this LS/Vtec motor. Does anybody have any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Set Up:
B18a1 Stock Block, freshened up.
Type R Head
DSM 450cc Injectors with the resistor box wired up.

If you have fuel, then the only two other things you need are ignition and compression. If you don't have the other two you need to figure out why. Cam timing on, are you getting compression ? Are you sure the injectors are wired up right ?

By "fire" do you mean not getting spark?

a little more info.

by "motor doesnt want to turn over" do u mean that it is slow to turn over like a bad battery / something is creating excessive drag on the motor causing it not to crank fast?

It wasn't doing anything besides getting fuel, but I figured it out.

The starter wire wasn't connecting correctly on the starter so we had to straighten it up and replug it in, crunk right up. Just have to fix a few leaks now.
