Have someone turn it over while youcheck to see if you have any airflow out the tailpipe.
Everything else seemed to check fine so it sounds like your exhaust is very plugged; well at least its all I can think of offhand.

It don't think it is a exhaust issue. I tried shooting some fuel into the TB again and i am not getting any change at all. i dont think the fuel is even making it into the cylinder because the plugs have no remnance of gas on them when i pull them afterwards.

I had the same symptoms as you're having and it ended up being the stator on the distributor. Ford ended up figuring it out.

Exclamation Any update?

I am having the same issue (96 F150 5.0L 4R70W Trans). I am having it towed to a shop to have it looked at. I was getting a P0320 code so I replaced both the crankshaft position sensor and the ignition coil. The darn thing will turn over but will not start. I can hear the fuel pump (both front and rear) energize and pressurize but seem to have an issue with getting spark from the coil.

Thanks,
Shawn

Well, it looks like my culprit was a component within the distributor. I can't remember the actual part but they advised me that in the past when they try and remove this part (using the super special dealer tool) they end up tearing up the distributor. I haven't picked it up yet but will probably feel confident that it's fixed after driving it about a week or so. I'll follow up say Tues/Wed of next week with an update.
