So I did an engine swap. Bad 7afe for a good 7afe. The long and short is, the engine is in. Bolted up, wired up, and wont start. Ive have good grounds, I'm getting power to the relays, fans, etc. But the starter isn't doing anything. I know its hooked up, because i never disconnected it during the swap, and I never had problems with it before. WHAT IS GOING ON ?! .......HELP!

Ground to starter perhaps? Ignition switch. If it's an automatic, could be a neutral safety switch acting up. Would be something along those lines if the starter isn't even bumping over. Odds are it's something simple. I forgot to attach the ground to a starter once, talk about freaked out.
