Post No Spark at all???

A friend just put a 383 in his 89 IROC and it ran great for about 600 miles. He went to start it the other day and its not getting any spark at all? Anyone have any ideas on where to start so we can get it back on the road????
Thanks,
Adam

Crank it with the coil disconected and attached to a grounded spark plug. If that works, fault is in the cap and rotor. If not, it could be the ignition module in the distributor or the coil. Find another car and transfer the coil there. If it works, it is the module.
