Default new head gasket, now there's no spark?

Just like the title says, I replaced my head gasket, and now i've got no spark. i put the car back together, everything is in it's place as far as i can tell. I don't have spark in any 4 cylinders. i have mV at the distributor cap and i have 12V at the distributor on the spring that touches the cap. I think it might be the ICM that fried, but i don't see the ICM anywhere. if you can give me some advice I'd appreciate it! i need this car running asap!

What car? Remove the 15A hood ECU fuse and the distributor cap. When you crank the engine, does the rotor turn?

Check your main relay

I've heard from more than a few people that its probably the ICM or rotor cap. I'll check the relay in the morning. How likely would it be that the cap or icm failed? What about the relay? What could cause it?

You must post car information.
