Default no spark!!! i need help ASAP!

ok this is the thing, i just did a motor swap for my friend in his honda accord. theoriginal motor was a single cam non vtec f22. on the internet we had purchased a JDM f22b DOHC motor. i got it in just fine, everyting went well and i can get it to turn over. there is no spark when i pull the spark plug out to check, and i changed the rotor but it is still not sparking. i was wondering if there is something that i missed. please anyone that can help it would be much appreciated.

Wouldnt hurt to check all fuses, but probably something small you forgot or overlooking. Are you using correct ECU?

yup, a obd1 h23 ecu. they also are made for the internal coil pack inside of the distributor, and i looked around, and that is what they use with motors to.

The igniter is inside the distributor. It is the flat piece with all the connections on top.

i think that i figured out my problem, i put a external coil packm wiring harness on a internal coil pack motor. it is not producing no spark because of this. someone tell me if this could be my problem, i am very sure of it!
