How could this make the engine not start in a brand new Rampage MT?

No
Maybe someone else will chime in.
If the diffs are in backwards it should start but the wheels will turn the wrong way on the end that's backwards.
Do you have fuel,spark and compression?

Richen it a bit people always associate bogging with too rich but its mostly too lean motor starving for fuel

Try stock settings
I chucked my 990 cause they're hard to start without a choke.
