Help, swap not staring up

I just finished putting a D15B into my car. She turns over but is not firing up. Cam and crank are aligned. I can hear the fuel pump prime and the plugs are wet.

HELP ME OUT!

Are you getting spark?

If the thermostat ground is off, the fuel pump wont prime, so its probably not it.

Sounds like your not getting spark.
Check your coil or ICM.

I'm an idiot. I had the firing order wrong. Motor runs now...but I think I have a bad headgasket since I'm puffing white smoke out the tailpipe...
