Help

been working on my fc for four months now and cant get it started. compression check is good. fuel pressure is good. no vacuum leaks. the only problems i can find is i get a spark buts it seems to be very weak. i also do not get an rpm reading when cranking. engine cranks fine but will not fire. I also cannot smell any gas even if i take the plugs out and crank it with all the fuses in. i checked the resistance on the injectors and they are good and i even swapped them for a known good set and still nothing. Seems to be an electrical problem somewhere but i dont know where to even look anymore. Engine is ported, 3mm apex seals , no emmissons controls. Apexi Power fc (I've tried starting it with the orginal ecu as well with no luck). ANYONE HELP PLEASE!
