I've spent the last couple of weeks rebuilding the top end of my motor. I've ported and polished the heads and both intake manifolds, as well as the throttle body. I also got everything sandblasted and painted it up with duplicolor cast coat aluminum engine enamel. I got my pacesetter header installed and my comp cams camshaft instaled, along with new lifters, pushrods, valve springs, retainers and stem seals, not to mention new gaskets & seals all around. I got everything back together last night and tried to start it and it would not fire. In fact, it sounded like timing was way out.
To make a long story short, I did a whole load of trouble shooting and discovered that I'm not getting any spark from the coils. I disconnected a few plug wires one at a time and the coils weren't even sparking. Then I tried to arc out one of the plug wires and got nothing.
Now my question is, what should I be checking? I'm thinking either a sensor is not hooked up right (either cam or crank sensor), or the coils / ignition module aren't grounded properly.
Any insight on this is muchly appreciated. If any more info is needed, please let me know.
