updates and help please

I have looked and researched previous posts, I can't seem to find an answer or help to my problem. I'm swaping a '82 non turbo automatic to a '83 turbo 5spd engine. The engine swap is in place, my problem now is that the motor wont turn(before it was removed from the '83 the motor was working fine, infact I drove the car around the lot eventhough it was a parts car I bought it with no title everything worked perfectly). It sounds like when you have a bad starter that will just click everytime you hit the key. I swaped the complete turbo engine, harness, ECU, turbo fuel pump and fuel tank, AMF, the only thing I'm not sure is the connection to the alternator. I can't find a diagram or a picture to that connection. If anyone has any info please let me know.

if you turn the key and hear a click you have a loose/cut wire by the starter or you dont have it hooked up right, if you dont hear a click then its more then likely a relay/fuse... if all else fails just put a push button start..

I believe it was Fubar who recently had this prob too & found out he never disconnected the automatic "inhibitor switch" that will disable the starter if the switch isn't in Park.
