My 350 cranks but won't turn over. HELP!

So ,
here's some fun stuff for you to figure out.
I put my camaro in reverse. It shut down. It will now crank and never turn over.
I replaced the cap and rotor, ignition control module, checked the coil.
It's not getting spark.
What of the camshaft or LED sensor?
Also the spark plug wires are fine.

As you provided minimal info it's harder to give better details on how to troubleshoot your problem. I'm guessing you have an small cap hei ignition, though it could be large cap or aftermarket.
The igntion module is the most common failure. Replacement ones are often bad too. Have them tested at the parts store....even the new ones. You cou have lost power supplying the dist or a bad pick up.
There is no led/camshaft sensor......the distributor is essentially the camshaft senor.

Hi Aliceempire.
thanks so much for the reply. I didn't want to go on and on and on, but yeah, I also think it's the pick up. I recently bought one, but omg if you could see the big bolt I have to get out. I think I may have to remove the distributor.
Do you have any suggestions to go around that? I also had to replace my ICM and I think that burned out my pick up. Love your car btw.

Big bolt? This is a long winded breakdown but it shows you the insides pretty well. Again, I'm guessing you have this type of dist.
Easier just to replace the whole thing. Best to test things first and not just toss parts at it. Saves time and money.
