Default car wont start HELP!!!!

i put in autolite plugs gapped to .054, msd cap, msd rotor, msd coil. car wont crank at all. i put back the stock coil...nothing. put the old cap/rotor back on...nothing. i also made sure the wires were connected to the coil in the correct firing order..nothing. now, these two plastic lines were very brittle and they snaped on me. please see pics. the white and black wires broke. is this why my car will not start?

I NEED TO GET TO WORK!

problem solved, the piece of sh*t alarm that was in my car when i bought it was my problem. i messed with the valet switch and it started up. the alarm never worked anyway since the car was broekn into, but it still manages to make a 2 hour job into a 5+ hour nightmare. still gotta replace those vac hoses anyways, at least i can get to work!

Ya i was gonna say that it didnt look like those lines would have anything to do with it starting. Im lucky enough to be someplace where i could take off all that emissions stuff. But glad to see that you got it figured out and running, nothing is worse than trying to figure out why a car wont run.
