ignition works but no cranking
welp, I was gonna break in my new cam today, I have the engine all wired up with my american autowire kit. I tested my MSD by falsely triggering it and it sparks. I went to turn the key and crank it and nothing happened. I know I wired everything up as the directions said.
The battery is pretty old, is it possible that if a battery is low enough it won't even make the solonoid click? Nothing at all was happening.
Also, when I primed the engine the oil pressure guage wasn't reading anything. I know there was oil pressure because oil made it up to the rockers. The guage lights up if I pull out the headlight switch.
I'm pretty bummed so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
