Icon3 !998 GSR Swap EK No Spark HELP!!!!

I have a 1998 gsr swaped ek ran fine just died one day when it was idling in the street. What i have done it trouble shoot it i have replaced the hactacular harness that came in the car with a ex harness that was converted to work with the gsr. 3 ecus i am running obd2a-obd1 jumper and tried a chipped p30, p72, and a obd2a P2P n change and also tried 3 obd1 b-series vtec distys. Sanded and checked all grounds for good continuity. I am at a loss I just don't know what to do besides throw a molotov cocktail at it. Only thing and i'm not 100% sure if it effects spark is the main fuel relay. I'm not new to hondas just never post here just had to suck it up and ask for help.
