Hard to understand your post . What do you mean by "the car ticks " ?Is it a clicking noise from the solenoid at starter ? Is the engine turning over ? Was it starting o.k before g/box fitted ?

Has your earth strap been correctly secured to gearbox ,check this first.or quick test for earth issues is jump lead from battery earth to good earth point on engine and see if works.
