IN A RESPONCE TO A REPLY I SAW ON YOUR SITE. I CUT THE WIRES TO MY CLUTCH IGNITION SWITCH AND WIRED THEM TOGETHER FIGUREING THAT WOULD BE THE SAME AS THE SWITCH ENGAGED. IT STILL WONT TURN OVER. WHAT WOULD MY NEXT STEP BE. COULD THE COLUMN IGNITION BE BAD. IT WAS TAKING 2 OR 3 TIMES TURNING THE KEY BEFORE THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER. THATS WHY I DONT THINK ITS THE ANTI THEFT.

Check items in pic for fusible links it should have same power on both ends it may not those are available at auto parts. Check relays to see if they are sending a signal to start hen have an assistant try to start and see if relay is getting a signal from blue white wire to activate starter that would let you know if switch is bad. If you dn't know how to check a relay go to how to repair electrical on our site here
