Test for voltage at the starter main battery cable. (12.4vdc) If power present, check for signal at starter solenoid, coming from ignition switch, you may a bad ignition switch. Also check for voltage at the coil + when key is on to see if it's getting power. If no power, check ignition switch
also forgot to mention it has hei distributor that's new as well.
First, follow steps mentioned above to see if ignition switch is good. If voltage checks out ok then you can go to the next step
