Default not getting any spark!!!

ok, just swapped in my engine and i'm trying to start the damn thing up. I turn the ignition and i get that rapid eh..eh..eh..eh sound like its trying to turn over, al my interior electrical and lights are fine. However, when i removed a spark plug wire and put a plug in it to see if it was firing, i'm not getting any spark!!!!

what should i start checking and troubleshooting to make this happen?
