the voltage relay(?)-the 2X3 square box that the harness hooks into under the hood might be burned up as well, I think that was a problem I had with my modelT (55 chev wiring harness), seemed to remember no spark/wouldn't run, and then a burnt up ignition switch....
changed al that and it worked again.
there are some sort of points/breakers inside that box that might have burned up as well.
before any thing, double check that you got the pionts installed in the right spot, and that they open up when they should, if you are off, I think you get no spark.
