LT1 Starter Circuit Issue

Preface, nothing is close to factory wiring anymore.

That being said, when I click ignition to start, I get the solenoid pulsing like a dead battery situation. BLS said motor was slowly turning over so starter is working, sort of.

Ok, figured its finally kicked the bucket. But, I started to tinker.

If I take the purple lead off the starter solenoid, and jump that straight to hot 12v, starter sounds great. Flings the motor over no problem. So, IMO, there is an issue on the chassis side of ignition hot to starter solenoid.

Obviously it shows power with a test light, but how else can I test this? Seems to be not enough power, which is odd.

Throughly confused?

Edit: Looks like ignition switch may be the culprit, will be wiring in a separate circuit tmmr to bypass the stock start and see if it runs.
