Car wont start!

Car wont start!
So i have an 86 coupe with a carbed 5.0 recently it stopped running and im almost lost. now it will turn over but will not crank. i replaced the msd box, the coil, the wires, sparkplugs, cap , and rotor, and it still will not fire. It used a test light and saw that power was going to the positive side of the coil, but the coil isnt sending the spark to the distributor. What could cause this? Everyonce in a blue moon the car will fire, but other times it simply isnt getting spark. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure the distributor is turning also. With the cap off bump the engine to see if the rotor is rotating. Does this year have the TFI module like my 1990 5.0 does, on that I am not sure if you have it or not. Sounds like you have verified the primary side with your test light, but sounds like it is not getting the secondary side which is for the spark to the plugs.
