Hi:
If you're sure if the timing chain is ok and it's still in time, have you checed the distributor to make sure the rotor is still turning when it's cranked? Also, is there power to the coil?

If there is power to the coil and the distributor is turning, you may have a bad pickup coil or ignition module.

Let me know what you find.
