Default 89 civic si starting issue

ok....i got an 89 civic si from my older brother....it doesnt run....me and him did a motor swap to an 88 crx si motor that was rebuilt...which is the same motor.....now...it wont start and i dunno why.....i think its the main relay and i searched but i figured wat could it hurt to post again.....when i turn the key and try to start it the motor trys to start..the CEL comes on and shuts off and it ticks so yea....it turns and turns and turns but it doesnt run.....i checked the fuel line and it was completely dry and the fuel pump wasnt priming
we replaced the pump with a walbro 255 lph unit and it still didnt work...i also changed the fuel filter....now i dunno wats wrong with it and i need it to run so i can sell it......also it is for sale 1200 or best offer....senseless plug

but yea guys help me out cuz it needs to run and go one of the two thanx

you could have a blown fuse or possible your main relay which should be under the dash on the left side right around the hood pop
