how are you checking for spark?
don't be cheap and rely on used crappy plugs, buy NEW ones!
i find that most ignition problems stem from people not simply replacing used worn out spark plugs. in these cars they take a fair amount of abuse and can sometimes appear to be ok but in fact are fouled.

OK an update, coils tested out good, as did the CAS. The plugs that were in the car were for a **** ton motor. I had a fairly new set laying around. The car looks like it has been sitting for 5 something years. We got rid of a half tank of crappy gas, as well as blew out the fuel lines. The ecu had ( N326) junkyard paint on it, and a broken harness clip. Most of the fuel lines were loose or removed. I have a ECU I am getting later today, BUT it seem that the harness might have a short. I am basing this off the fact the ecu has been swaped but still no spark. All fuses are good BTW and the battary is brand new.
