welcome to the forum. Try putting the old ignition coils back on and check your spark plugs.

Well, I do not remember if the coils are COP or just a set on distributor.
If you put everything back to original parts then it should go back to original condition
Unless, something else failed???

In any case, back to basics, check the spark with the plug pulled out
Check to see if the injectors have control pulses and see if the fuel pump runs, etc

Follow the smoke to the wiring problem. You have a ground attached to a power.
