Line Loc & 2 Step Wiring

Ok so i'm pretty sure i figured out how to wire my 2 step and line correctly but i'm trying to figure out how to wire in my neutral safety switch. The way i have it drawn out the push button should active the line lock at any given time and the 2 step when the clutch is pushed in (5 speed car). Bleach box -> hold clutch in plus momentary button (line loc and 2 step on) - > dump clutch with finger still on button (line loc still on 2 step off) and do the burn out - > stage, clutch in, finger on button, while still in gear hold it WOT (line loc on, boucning off the 2 step), Dump clutch and finger off the button and away we go.

So my initial question is, by the "drawing" (im no artist ) have i wired it correctly? If not where did I go wrong, and if I did wire it right but you know of a better more efficient way to do it please tell me that as well, i'm open to new ideas.

Now my second question is this, i have never really used a neutral safety switch in this car to prevent the starter from engaging. However now i'm like hell why not, im playing around with it anyways might as well do it as a bonus. So how can I tie the starter into the neutral safety switch and get the starter to work with OUT having to push the momentary push button as well. I just can't figure it out so i need help, if i'm sh*t out of luck screw it, ill just not use it since that's nothing new . Thanks in advance

FWIW I never tie anything to +12 constant. there is not many things that need battery power even when the ignition switch is off.

if I'm not mistaken the neutral safety switch works from ground, at least that's the way it is on my bike. it's the same holds true for the car you may be better off wiring the relay to activate with ground instead of +12v by the momentary switch

no, it just lets current through. It wont work regardless i played around with it a little more. If i did hook the relays up to the alternator they wont turn on until the engine runs even tho the relays are engaged when i hit the starter. Problem is with it wired that way after the motor is running and i hit the momentary button it will engage the starter if the clutch is pushed in. So yea, basically scratch that idea. Thanks anyways fellas
