Which fuse is it :S?

I checked all the 15 20 and 30 and theres even a 4 but is it one of those big ones?

Battery is fine

Starter Relay where is that located?

the starter relay is on the passenger side inner fender above the ignition coil, it has two brass bolts/nuts on it. i cant see how messing with your dash wouldve affected it but doesnt hurt to check since i see the bolts come loose on them. they have a few fusible links to them also but cant remember what they are for atm

It was the column Shifter linkage, was never in park...

Simple error I guess now I feel stupid :-p.

Sad thing is I still smell anti-freeze for the first 30 sec every time I start the heater...

You probably got some antifreeze in the heater core box.It'll eventually go away.Double check all the hose clamps and keep an eye on things for a couple of days.
