Re: engine cranks, no spark (SBC 350)

Need more info like what engine did you swap for, HEI or points.

Check the wiring first to make sure it's wired correctly at the starter and to the coil. If you have points, check to make sure they're adjusted properly.

Check for pin hole in the rotor and any cracks or for arcing on the cap.

Coils don't generally go bad but it is possible. First just make sure everything else is correct. If you have another coil laying around you can try that since they're very easy to swap out.
