Default New Build Wont Start, NOT OPTI!!

I have a 1994 Formula. I did a th400 trans swap. I have everything in the car all the parts are brand new but i cant seem to figure out why im not getting spark and fuel.

I got the computer setup by madz28 and he has done a great job before with my cars. So its not the computer.

The opti,plugs,wires, igintion module, coil, injectors are all brand new and GM parts. I have a very solid crank but little close to 0 spark and the fuel cuts off pretty much the same. Im starting to believe i have something not hooked up right and starting to think its my nurteral saftey switch or something pertaining to the trans that would shut it off.

anyone with a idea on how to fix my problem i would greatly appericate it.

Im wondering if this could be a VATS issue. Is the VATS disabled in the computer if not this could be it. THis will stop the fuel pump from turning on.

It's a ground on the drivers side that hooks to the coil and then to the frame
