Default ZC swap done but it won't start!!!

Alright I am done with the swap but it won't start. It won't even turn over. All I am getting is the starter spinning. Any ideas.

Alright I figured out why it was not turning over but now I am not getting any spark. Coil is good, not sure about igniter trying to check that now. Any other ideas.

is this a zc swap in a fourth gen civic? If so the wiring change you had to do for the distributor, make sure all those pins a pushed completely into the connector, mine didn't start and thats what it ended up being.
