Have you checked your grounds to the distributor and thermostat housing?
If 12v is getting to your primary coil check your ground paths.
Have you put a spark tester on the spark plug wires?
I don't have the schematic in front of me for the dizzy, what year is the car and harness setup?now that I reread your first post its most likely a ground issue if all your parts work on another car unless its the ecu pins or harness side pins.

You said you have power to the distributor assembly, is that with engine cranking and not just when ign. is turned on?

Also, MM&Y of car and any mods/swaps would help. 94

Bumping your tread without answering questions is not going to help. 94
