Default Trouble Turning Over

2005 Stratus SXT
192k on odometer but engine was replaced with a junkyard motor that has about 90k on it.
3.7L
Brand new fuel pump replaced this past summer. Thought it was the fuel pump so I switched it out for another brand new one and still have the same problem.
​​​​​​When starting the car, it seems to not want to turn over. It cranks but does not start. I let the fuel pump surge and wait until the red light on the dash goes off. I do this three times and then the engine will start. This car is going to my daughter in a few months when she gets her license so I want to make sure it is reliable for her to drive back and forth to school/work. Any suggestions?
