Need some help with a ZC problem!

Hi all! I have a problem that I hope someone can help me with. I swapped a ZC DOHC motor into my 91 CRX si yesterday. When everything was finished, I tried to start the motor. It will turn over, but wont start. I checked, and I have fuel, but no spark. I have voltage at the connection at the distributor, am pretty confident my wiring on the distributor is correct. I spliced in the integra connector, matched up wire color codes, and sent the two blue wires to the crank sensor. I am at a total loss right now. Any help? Thanks much for your time!!

I would say it is in the wiring of the distributer most likely. So you are not getting any power to your spark plug wires right? It could also be the coil or the igniter in the distributer. Did you put a new cap and rotor on, if not I would suggest replacing it. Any questions just ask me.

thats the same thing that happened to my friends zc motor.
it was a timing problem. what distributor are you using?
we used the stock si one, and the distributor had to be rocked back towards the firewall. i dont know if thats normal but it runs. kinda boggie
but it runs.
oh you might want to check the firing order, 1-4-3-2, i think
good luck
