Default need help bad ready to burn crx to ground!

ok so i have a 88 crx dx. I have done the dpfi to mpfi swap and also a obd0 to obd1 harness addapter. i am running a fully built d16z6 with a p28 with hondata. JUst finnished the project and wanted to fire it up. turned key and no fuel pump figured out it was a bad pump and a blown fuse. when i turned the key second time car fired right up and when i went to give it gas it died and maybe ran for 3 to 5 seconds. thats when i noticed the huge fuel leak from the filter so i got the leak stoped and tryed to start it again. Nuthing. so i pulled a plug and noticed it was very wet with fuel so im thinking no spark. Grounded out the plug and definatly have spark so i tested the igningther and the coil too both check out fine thinking im not getting a stong spark i tryed a differnt dizzy still nuthing. so i tryed my buddys p28 with hondata he had sitting around with my chip in it and i got a map sensor code put a new one in and still nuhting. the car cranks fine i have lots of gas and good spark but no start. evertime i pull the plugs they are wet so i replaced them. does anyone have a clue why this wont fire up im going nuts please help.

i had the same problem in my zc swap, it turned out that my injectors were full of **** and plugged, my fuel line was to small, and i had 2 dead cylinders, no compression = no fire, if you know that you have good compression then check to make sure that your timing is not out 180, thats what it sounds like to me, or check to make sure that ur plug wires are in the proper order and that the rotor is pointed to #1 at TDC #1, another thing i had to figure out on the run was make sure that your injector harness is in the proper injector, the first time i had it in backwards ( 1 was on #4 injector and so on ) i learned all those lessons for my next swap, good luck
