Make sure you're getting power to the coil, ohm it out and make sure it's ok. Check for continuity between the chassis and grounds on the head and those for the ignition coil. Pull up a picture/diagram of your engine harness and make sure you account for all grounds that go to the head.

Unfortunately there are quite a few factors that can create a no-spark condition but it can be overcome
