Well the ground is good too. Also I took off the starter motor and

still doesn't start, you have saved me ~$100 in not buying a part that
is working fine. Must be a chewed wire somewhere that I just can't seem
to find!

Yep, sounds like it. If you don't already have a voltmeter, this would be a
good excuse to buy one.
