It sounds like at least part of your issue is bad grounds. There should not be current going through a throttle cable. Check for the ground from the back top of the motor to the firewall and trace the negative battery cable to the body ground and to the engine block. After that, search on here for jrichker's will not start write up. It will go into great detail on what to check and how.
 
well not to sure what the problem is still but after putting the oil pan back on value covers and moving a ground wire up lil higher seem to start just fine ...the starter seems to have a odd noise to it but thats a simple fix i can figure out im sure thatnks for the reply 7991LX
