Default 95 Accord head swap from dx to Vtec

Hello to all...I am new to this....I swapped my 95 dx head for a 95 vtec head. I changed out the ecu, distributor, wires, and plugs. Timing is TDC...however car is not starting.... My question is... with the dx the ignition coil was external, therefore it had its own plug...with the ex the ignition coil is internal....is the free plug causing my car not to start? Any and all help is greatly appreicated and need....thanks

Just go back to the DX head, you've wasted a huge amount of time for ~7hp. IF you decide to go ahead, search a bit.

Thanks for info...I got it figured out...I had to use the power blk/yellow wire from the old ignition coil plug and put it with the internal ignition coil wire on the distributor....
