Post more info...

Fuel pump prime?

Spark at plugs?

Voltage to injectors?

first doublecheck your wiring tp your distributor. Just for ***** n gigs spray some starting fluid into the throttle body. If your lucky enough it might start or puke a couple of times just enough to throw a code. that will help you pinpoint the issue a little better. If nothing happens with the starting fluid then you definately dont have spark...it would be a wiring issue.
