Here's a couple more thoughts:
Unplug the RFI capacitor from the coil pack connector loom, then try starting.
(It's attached to the coil mount and has it's own connector a few inches back.)
The PCM should have (2) ground wires exiting the main PCM loom and connecting
to a bolt near the center of the firewall. Check those for a solid ground.
If you have battery voltage at the coil pack positive wire, then what's missing is the
ground signal on the other three wires to fire the coils. AFAIK, those signals come
from the CPS through the PCM (where they're timed), then out to the coils.)
Fairly simple.
Also check the spacing between the CPS and the toothed wheel on the crankshaft.
There's a spec for that, but don't remember what it is offhand...
