Default 91 Dodge Stealth R,/T TT DOHC starting issue

Hello everyone,

I have a 91 Dodge Stealth R/T TT DOHC that I did an engine replacement on, first time ever, however there is power but when you turn the key over, there is nothing. We jumped the starter to see if the car would start and it did, but I'm still unable to start from the ignition switch. Any suggestions? PLEASE I just want to GRT it up and running correctly.

Check the clutch switch. I have no idea where it is on your car though.

Ok but why would that have anything to do with it when it's in neutral and starting from the starter being jumped. I will check

Because it's a safety circuit. Car won't start unless you push in the clutch. (otherwise, you could start it in gear, and that could be exciting. )
