Default My car is not starting from a swap!!!

Hey guys. I just did a swap. Not a 1j or 2j. Just a v8 to another v8. The blown v8 is a 92 1uz and i swap in a 95 v8 1uz. The harness is different, ecu, vacuum host,etc.... i did it all, swap everything, plug everything, everything looks good until I tried to start the car. It didn't sart. It just crank... turn... but no sparks.... gasoline level is good, brand new yellow top, drain fill all the fluid except the brake fluid. I pull out the sparkplug and start the car and no spark whatsoever. Anybody know what's going on? Alternator is fine btw. So what now? Somebody please help!!! Thanks in advance.

in my experience with swaps a good place to start checking is fuel line. often you will find that jdm engines have fuel lines slightly bent stopping fuel flow. Also a good place to check with no spark, assuming new spark plugs, are the grounds. check to make sure the engine is grounded correctly with a good un-corroded wire. another great place to check for no spark is the distributor and everything connected to it. Granted i am not in your garage and its is something hard to describe all the details of but thats the best i can give you right now.
