is the ecu turning on? if all the normal dash lights don't come on with the key you might not be getting power to the ecu.

Was there any redish brown dust in the distributor? It can also be when the bering inside the distributor goes bad, it typically kicks up that nasty dust into the cap. I'd try a new distributor.

i know it sounds dumb, but check the wire infestation that is under your dash. my friend and i just dropped a motor in and somehow a wire under the dash was loose. wouldn't even run until we connected it...
