Is the fuel pump running? Have you checked the fuses? Replaced the relay? Is there power at the fuel pump? A fuel pressure gauge would be helpful.

Does the car start if you spray carb cleaner into the intake?

If yes, then it's fuel delivery......you say there is no fuel pressure when depressing the schraeder?

Providing you hooked everything up correctly, next step is to disconnect harness at tank and attach a test light to the fuel pump circuit....should light for 2 seconds with key on.....be on constant during cranking.....
