85 na wont crank over. Where are all the grounds?

Hello, i have recently bought another 85 na. It is in near mint condition with 120k on it. It has been sitting in a garage for the past 10 years and i finally talked the owner into selling it to me. The original motor had thrown a rod through the block, but he gave me a complete motor from a running car to go with it that he had pulled out a couple of years ago. So out with the old, in with the new. I have it all in there, not 100% connected up yet, but i was wanting to make sure it is going to crank and fire before i get it totally in there. I have pretty much all of the wiring harness hooked up, except for maybe a couple of things that i am unsure of at the moment because not everything is where its supposed to be just yet. There is a wire loom coming from the engine bay fuse box and it goes into 2 big grey connectors. There is also another ground wire coming from that as well, which i have grounded to the chassis. I have the ground on the passenger side of the motor, that is bundled with the connector for the coil, hooked up. Are there any more grounds that i am missing? I replaced the starter because i could not get it to crank, but i can hear the starter relay clicking. Any idea's on what would cause this or possibly more grounds that need connected? Thanks alot! -Justin
