1987 IROC will not start - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

I have a 87 IROC-Z (305 TPI) that just does not want to start. I'm not getting spark at all. finally got my plugs changed. wires were changed prior to. I'm also suspecting that i'm not getting fuel either but that's a fairly simple one to diagnose. the thing that has me baffled is the lack of spark. as soon as i can find a way to pull the distributor and get it tested i will but I've checked all my grounds and have yet to check the relays. had 4 or 5 codes (they've since been erased when I changed the battery cable out, it was looking rough) and the only thing they had in common was the ECM. two of the codes mentioned things (MAF and TPS) that i know for a fact are working cause they're brand new. again only common thing between all the codes is the ECM. I need help on this bad because I had just filled it up and with my other two camaros having transmission issues i really need to get this thing on the road. Thanks in advance for the help

well pulled the dizzy and found my problem. corroded wires in the dizzy. I wonder if that would give off the same type of symptoms as a fuel pump going out.
