Replaced the motor, drove perfect this morning!

Then, I went to change the rear O2 sensor 1, bank one, and the braided ground strap touched one of the ends of the mega fuse, and sparked a bit. Checked the mega fuse and it's fine. 12v at both ends

Put everything back together and now it won't start. Cranks over easy and strong, but nothing.

-I have fuel pressure, fuel comes out the shrader valve
-I have power at the coil, 12v
-I have new cam shaft and crank sensors
-I check every relay, and fuse. All appear to be good

I don't seem to be getting spark. I have fuel at the rails. Took the plugs out and they are dry....shouldn't they be wet?

Did I fry the PCM? I have an extra one, but when I hook it up and try to start it, it won't even turn over.

I was so happy to get her running today, and now this. So bummed....
