interesting...all new stuff with power at the coil and no spark

I had a more experienced friend come and check my work. We found the TDC of compression stroke, checked the new rotor position and it was on #1 wire, the gap hasn't moved on the pick-up coil, all wires were installed correctly and everything is aligned and installed as it should be. We turned it over with a spare plug and wire directly from the coil to the exhaust manifold and it didn't spark during revolution or shutdown (key to off). We tested it until my battery started to weaken so that's on charge now. I didn't want to post voltage reading until my charge was above 6 volts. Im going to swap the original battery back to continue testing.
