Default ls in ek..wont start

I have my 95 ls motor in my 98 civic. It in, and when we try to start it, it turns over, but its not getting fuel (i dont hear the fuel pump prime). What would cause this, and how do I fix it?

Id say check the fuse to see if its ok. Then check to see if power is getting to the pump via a multimeter, then if there is power getting to it and no pump action then get a new pump. If no power getting to it, check your wiring......

Fuse is fine. The pump is in the gas tank, is it not? There is another one in the engine bay, but I see no wiring that should be hooked up to it.

you can have someone start the car and you can listen to it inside your car... just take off the lower piece of the back seat if you ain't good in hearing.... but the fuel pump shouldn't die on you after the swap... is there any fuel leak? like the hose to the fpr or the one connected from the fuel filter to the fuel rail?
