I am going to tell everybody exactly what i replaced so far, The fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, ignition coil, ignition control module, distributor cap and rotor along with having the timing chain changed, spark plugs and wires computer chip and knock sensors. Any more idea why it will not start?

what about the ECT temp sensor ? make sure with a pressure guage you get 45-48 psi fuel pressure. the opti connector needs checking. this can get damaged some have had this occur.
the distributor on these are very sensitive to coolant getting into them. this is because this is directly below the water pump weep hole. if the water pump leaks at this weep hole which does occur from time to time it will get into the distributor especially if this distributor has not been modified or updated with the venting of the 1995-1996 model year.
why was the timing chain replaced ? who had /came up with that idea ?
the other item which has caused this problem is the battery feed wire/connection to the underhood fuse box. this connection was not properly secured when this vehicle was built. over time many have had this melt and cause this no start problem.
big red wire to the fuse box at the fuse box......
