I am not home so I can't look at my wiring diagram, but I do have the list I posted on my website from when I rewired my stang using a EZ wire 21 circuit kit.

look at the part that says ignition switch wiring.

I don't know the whole history with your car but the neutral safety switch got me this way after having the engine out. Would crank with the key on and the screwdriver across the terminals. With the key off, no crank at all. Fussed with the switch and away she went.

i never thought of that. thats located on my shifter right? cause as of now i dont have the shifter in the car at all. im glad i got some guys who can think out side the box for me. cause i just built my engine and ran it on a test stand and since its been in the car i cant get it to go.
