Default NEED HELP WITH B16 SWAP ASAP!!!!!!!!!

Put the motor ina a 91 dx, it was already converted to multiport and ran fine. Swapped in the b16, connected all the wires but will not start. I'm getting a rapid clicking noise from under the dash near the fuse box, like the battery is dieing, but the battery cranks the engine with no problem. I don't have the vtec solniod or sending unit wired up yet, but don't think that will stop the engine from starting. Or will it? any help?

Check to see if you are getting fuel and/or spark. Also, check all of your grounds.

Grounds are connected excepte the oil sending unit, but thats not wired up at all. Pulled the plugs, and they had gar on them, but no spark. I know the dizzy is good cause I took the whole motor out of another car that ran.

Wiring is fixed. The ground was not connected to the thermastat housing. Started right up. Now I'm dumping oil out behind the oil cooler behind the oil filter. Pulled it off and the o ring was not on. Have to pick up some rtv to hold the o ring in place and hopefully that will fix it. Anyone else have this problem before?
