rx7 no spark

Hi guys I'm new to the forum and have been reading alot on here and hoping somone can help me out with my project or put me in the right direction. So about a month ago I purchased a 1987 fc gxl non turbo 13b that was basically ripped apart. Deciding on I didn't want to deal with it and wanting the 13bt I went and bought a jdm series 4 13bt. I extended the harness hooked everything up. It cranked but didn't start. I found the fuel pump seized. Replaced with a 255 Walbro. Fuel is now good. My problem now is no spark. I checked power at the coils and CAS. All good. Checked resistance on the CAS also good. Mad sure it's timed right aswell. I also checked all th pins I could think of on the ecu that has somthing to do with the coils and CAS all good. Anyone have any idea where to go from here?

Perhaps the engine is flooded. Check this page out: Rotary Performance - Tech - 86-91 Unflood Procedures

Since you bought a 13bt, did you check the compressions? Some engines being sold from japan has low compressions already.
