Considering that the coil bodies (those I'm familiar with) are made of plastic, the grounding wouldn't be from attaching it to the chassis. There is a group of wires that connect to one side of the coil on my car, more than likely one of those wires is the ground.
About your no spark - it is possible (happened to me) for the distributor wire plug to have a short. Specifically the prongs (or just one) inside the distributor side plug aren't pushing against the wire plug contact surface when the plug is inserted. The fix for me was to pry out those prongs with a small probe.
