can a intake manifold be a problem for not starting, such as if u bought a wrong one

and also is ground wires spose to get hot when cranking car.

Deemeetree

What are your symptoms? What happens when you try and crank the engine?

No, ground wires are not supposed to get hot when you crank your engine. Maybe, that's the problem on why it's not starting. You probably have some bad connections on the grounding wires and they aren't making proper contact to the connector and/or chassis.

like engine starts but doesnt turn on.. and it backfired once when trying to crank

and the ground wires itself are getting hot..
