did a shop do the swap for you? if so take it back becuase its obvious they did something...
From what you are telling me... some wires are grounding and shorting and touching eachother.. what model car did you get your motor put in too...
the wiring was definitly not done professionally

Sounds like the clutch switch isn't grounded properly and is instead grounding itself through other circuits. For sure, this is over your head, take it back to the shop.

Batterys probably dead if the main relay is buzzing like that. 11v+ makes it do that, jump the car with another battery WITHOUT that old battery in the loop. Take off the terminals and connect the pos/neg cables to jumper cables.
