Did you hook the clutch safety switch back up?

Does the starter relay click? Or the starter solenoid?

Did you have it sitting for a long time? What's the battery voltage?

Check battery voltage first then. See what ya got. Also, try starting it in neutral, and wiggle the shifter a bit.

I actually figured it out it was a plastic piece that goes on the master cylinder to stop the neutral safety switch
