I reread what you wrote haha yes it goes back to run position, the motor still spins a little and that's when I have tach bounce and spark until it stops

Post 2, just like I said, sounds like a bad switch. Take a wire and connect it to the starter solenoid, run it up the firewall. Put the key in the run position. Touch that wire to the + side of the battery, and see if it starts. I bet it does.

You were right king. Fired up. I'll get a switch and put it in. Thanks for taking the time to read what I wrote, I've had endless problems and am finally getting somewhere

I know of several cars that burned badly from a ignition switch going bad. The power comes directly from the battery to the ignition switch...no inline bus fuses to save the day.
