Help?! No Spark?!

Alright I just rebuild my motor, and I put it back in today. Everything is fine except I am not getting any kind of sparks. If you guys have any ideas I would really appreciate it.

The obvious question to me would be if you'e double-checked ALL your connections after the rebuild? And how are you checking for spark? The question you're asking seems to be a bit vague, and a bit more info would help. Like, did you pull the engine when you did your rebuild, or did you just do a "top end" job?

I pulled the complete motor out and I have done an engine rebuild before. Unfortunately this is the first time this has happened. All connections are made and I am pulling a spark plug out plugging it into a coil pack and watching for a spark. Nothing. I tried different places to ground and everything.

sure the transisitor thing (or whatever it was called) is plugged in? its right next to the CPS, but closer to the intake manifold.
