64 F100 motor start cant get spark

Just finished a motor swap on my truck. Put an 84 302 in it and cannot get spark. We used a new ignition Module for the 84 mustang the engine came out of, replaced the ign coil, and pickup coil. Also keep checking the wiring and it seems right the only thing missing is the resistance wire. Need some help guys not even alittle spark. Checked the power to the coil and the ign module and its got power. Anyone have any possible culprits?

Does the coil wire show any amps. I start trancing from there if your got power to module and from module to coil.

Did you ground the block? Are all ground straps attached to clean surfaces?

What voltage do you have at the coil with the key on?
