Neutral safety switch or the related wiring.

The engine itself not grounded to the car/battery. (use a booster cable to check)

Bad starter (the starter solenoid is mounted to, is part of the starter.

Corrosion in any of the starter wiring connections.

You are putting a 1993 Dodge Spirit in a trailer race you were wondering if there is a cut-off switch that you need to disconnect so that when you hit something the engine will stay running?

the only thing i can think of is the safety switch in the transmission... it detects anything wrong with transmission and kills the engine to prevent damage. you disconnect that and the engine wont run at all, wont even crank.

Why wont your Chevy truck crank after you just had your oil changed?

"Crank" meaning the starter doesn't crank the engine over to start it, changing the engine oil should have nothing to do with it not starting. If the battery was weak and something was left on, it may have run the battery down. Also check the engine oil level to be sure they put new oil back in or possibly left the drain plug loose and the oil drained out. If the engine was run with no oil in it, it could have seized the engine and it wouldn't crank over, in which case the engine is ruined.
