Default CB7 H22A SWAP HELP!!!!!

ok i got a 92 honda accord
i swapped a h22a of course.
i used my stock wiring harness and i followed all the wiring diagrams to switch is over such asd the knock sensor,the vtec wiring and such.
i hooked it all up and put the battery in and it wont turn over at all
im getting fuel and im getting power to the starter cuz i took a mutimeter to it.
the main relay was humming at first which would indicate a gound problem. i looked around and found that i didnt have the thermostat housing ground on. so i bolted that on and it still doesnt start.
im not sure what it could be. im not a mechanic at all im just a body man
so basically at this point i turn the key and i just hear the main relay click
but it sounds different then how it usually would sound.
if anyone has any idea's i would be very thankfull
also if anyone would like to call me my number iis 440-265-0739
my name is brian

Did you check the battery ground? The ground to the transmission?

ok im working on it right now.
i missed one ground. it goes from the neg battery cable.
at the end where it connects to the battery theres a piece that goes to the chassis well it was gone and im thinking it got ripped off during the engine swap.
added the new wire and still nothing.
i looked at the grounds near the transmission and they seem to be connected.
just for a test i stuck in the wire into the check engine light indictator near the ecu and the check engine light doesnt show anything.
It just stays on constent. also one thing i noticed the gas light stays on when the keys on.
im looking all over the place on the engine and i dont see anything that really stands out
