I'm getting poor spark or no spark

Here are the specs

18c1 GSR Block was sleeved by Benson Performance
CP 84.5mm pistons

Eagle H beam rods
New type R oil pump
New Type R water pump
New Type R timing belt

B16 head
Skunk2 Pro series intake manifold

1999 GSR cams
Skunk2 cam gears
Cosmetic 3 layer metal head gasket

ARP Head Studs
The head was fully gone through a 3 angle valve job .It has 9.0:1 compression. Im am running obd1 set up with a p28 ecu. I did a Da brake set up on the front and back. The trans is A1.

I was driving the car. I parked it for a week come outside to move it and it wouldn't start. I was getting fuel but I had little or no spark at the plugs. I took the dizzy cap off and checked the spark there. It was yellow and didn't seen like it was a good spark. I took off the dizzy did some testing on the ignitor and coil. They were both good. Just to be on the safe side I replaced them with a new dizzy.
I have checked all the fuses. I have replaced all the ground wires and cleaned off the ground connections. The fuel pump does prime and there is fuel pressure at the rail and the fuel injectors do fire. I have also replaced the ecu thinking that the ecu went bad.
I have been on many sites tring to get some info on what the problem is. please help. thanks jeff
