Thanks for all your help guys! I finally figured out what was going on! The power line that comes from the starter that goes around the front of the oil pan,... uno the one that is bolted to each side of the block....Somehow the metal braket shed it's rubber insulation (I probally pulled on it when I was pulling the motor) and was grounding it's self from the block!!!
Do you guys think I cooked any important wires,...my alt light does not come on now when you turn the ign. on??? Is that major?

Thanks for all your help again!
