Default HELP!!!! ls/vtec swap

Yo what up?! So i been workin on my lsv swap into my 96 teg. got the motor in all is good there but it wont start! Im using a b18a block with a 98 type r head, the stock obd2 engine harness, an obd2 to obd1 jumper harness in the cabin so i can use my p28. When i use the p28 i get power to my injectors but no spark, but when i change back to obd2 i get no power to my injectors but i get spark. im totally confused as this is my first swap so if you can drop some knowledge it would be much appreciated!

check your grounds. check your distributor. ignition coil might be dead. check for blown fuses

well yes and no. it was running great til the timing belt gave out. that kind of sparked the whole swap. but some info that might help, i had a super afc in there before which has been taken out in light of a s300. we heat shrinked all the wires back to stock positions and checked for continuity on all the wires we had to repair.
