    coils must aling with the base. run your fingernail up and own it must not snag.

    that done if you have no spark assuming notoing wrong magnet wise then  coil or condensre are suspect.

    did use measure/test/ replacethe condensers ??

    what ohms do you see on both lower and upper coil s    measure secondary  Ohms values to compare from boot clip to engine frame frame and report findings.    Some coils have 9 kohms  some have 4 kohms… if need be install similar coils or swap parts to see if the problem follows the parts .  CLEAN CLEAN the points

    What compression numbers do you have top and bottom…report findings !  your engine should idle fine ans  start at START  . is your  cam adjusted  with the cam follower  on the car  so it sits on the mark at START
