No Spark any help?

ok, doing a swap from auto to standard. Swapped the motor as well. Now there's no spark. I'm assuming not having the rad installed does nothing, so is the ECU not getting a signal from the auto and killing the ignition system? It seems to be sending the signal to the ignitor from what I can tell. Does anyone know what voltages I should see at the ignitor pack? The problem I have is that when I release the key and kill the starter, the coil sends out a spark. Do I need to change the computer possibly? I've tried a new coil (no ignitor) and a cap and rotor with no changes. Any more good ideas for me?

Also, from 89 - 90, are there any differences between the injectors, I can't really tell if mine are firing or not. Thanks guys!

yep, got the auto selector shorted to make it look like it's parked. From what I find on here that's all I should need to do. I'm kinda thinking Ignitor pack at this point but the parts place I deal with says they're about 350 - non returnable, so I'm trying to cover my bases before I cough up the dough. So I guess the question to ask would be how does the ignitor decide when to fire a spark, and from there figure out what part of that decision is missing...if that makes any sense.
