Default CRX Not starting.

Alright I have a 90 CRX DX, I just finished doing a manual conversion in it, and I go and try to start the car up, and it just cranks and cranks, I can smell gas when it cranks, and I can see it when I look into the throttle. (Dual Point) But it seems like its not getting a spark. Its not even attempting to start up at all. Its got new spark plugs, New plug wires, new dizzy cap, new fuel filter, new O2 sensor, basicly a whole tune up. These were all done before the conversion. I was told that I needed to splice three wires to confuse the ECU into thinking its always in park. I spliced three wires together that were on the automatic shifter. The car shows its in park, cranks, and I'm assuming is getting gas. Anyone know why the dizzy may not be working right? (Worked before I starting the conversion)

Thanks
