Check that both wires are connected to the starter. Then check if there are any engine/transmission ground wires that didn't get reattached.

i mean the odds of your starter going at this time are slim, but it could be..... grab a wrench and give the starter a good whack.. and try it again

I did oms checks on all the fuses all good and did oms checks from + on battery to + on starter same with ground. With clutch engaged I can hear the whining of fuel pump. I know batterys good I tested that. Maybe I reinstalled the ground on the trans wrong idk.

Yeah. Just remember, if jumping the main wire from the battery, you need to use a wire of equal size or larger. Jumper cables are often used. Also, be aware of this working.

Unless a very dirty connection, I'd say attached is attached. Hard to screw up here.
