now we're getting somewhere...your truck needs 2 things to run: fuel and spark. It's carbureted with a mechanical fuel pump, right? Since it was running before, it's probably getting fuel. Now find out if it's getting spark by pulling a plug, grounding it against the block and see if it sparks when you turn it over. If it doesn't then there's something wrong with the ignition system. If it does, then screw it back in and see if it'll run with some starter fluid. Then you'll know your problem is fuel. Maybe the short killed your icm, coil, blew a fuse or fusible link related to one of these items. 99.999999% sure your current problem would not be solved with an engine or transmission rebuild
