Just rebuilt my engine and tried to start and got no spark to the plugs. No power to coil pack or crankshaft position sensor whatsoever

Check your powers and grounds. Make sure the fuses are good.
Check for 12 volts to the positive side of the coil. If not, could be an ignition switch. If you do, then you need to see if the computer is firing the coils. You need a scan tool for that.
