If you battery and starter tested good, then it's time to look at cables or connections. Wiggle the connections and see if anything comes loose. See if the wires are corroded underneath the insulation by the battery. Also, check the ground connection at the block.

Problem got solved after lunch , it was a bad connection from the pos battery terminal , their is an aftermarket side post terminal where you lay the wire in and tighten two bolts and squish the wire . Bad connection there . It looks shitty enough that if i had more wire i would have cut it short but that wasn't an option so i cleaned it with baking soda and water . New side terminal piece and it works again
thanks for the help people , on a side note my voltage is much higher bc of the new battery . My 6yr old battery is crap .
