Default Zc Swap, please help

Hey guys, me and my friend just finished putting a zc engine in his CRX. We wired everything according to instructions and when we went to start it, it would'nt start. We checked I we found out we wernt getting and spark to the plugs. Does anybody here have any idea what the problem could be?

Did you wire the distributor correctly?? There should be two white wires and my guess is you have them backwards. That is why when I went from a ZC to a b16a it wouldn't start.

lol, sorry for the spelling, I typed it up in a hurry. What I was trying to say was there was no spark going to the plugs.

try the distributor (hondas are known for dis going bad)

also check the timing on the gears mine were so far off it wouldnt start it took us days to figure it out we rewired the car about 5 times before we realized it
