Default new to me 93 cpi blazer
got a new s10 with a no spark condition, honestly thought it would be easy but it's sparking from the coil...sometimes? but nowhere else and even direct from coil it has to crank for 5 seconds to start sparking

Do you mean sparking from the coil body or you pulled the lead and it is sparking to ground?

Do a fuel pressure leak down test and pull one plug wire and look for spark during the initial crank no start condition.
