Plenty have "dun this". You'll have to provide a bit more info., if you want someone to work out why it doesn't "go"!
Anything work with the ignition switch?
Spark at the plugs?
Fuel pump activity when cranking?
Does it crank?

Quite often turns out to be the crank position sensor - either finished off during the swap, or the lead plugged in to the wrong socket, if the engine loom has been unnecessarily removed from the engine.

If there's no power to the coil OR the fuel pump, then the problem is most likely the CPS, as Brian says.

How have you checked this?Beano69 wrote:Can't get power to the coil it self.
Fuel pump doesn't run unless the engine is rotating, and the ECU knows it's rotating.
