Default electrical ground/short problem

Just got done with my swap to JDM h22, engine works fine other then a noise coming from pulley area.
Now i start it and i'm having elec problem. turn headlights on and the power in dash/radio blinks and tach drops and stays at 0rpms. turn fan on(ac doesnt work yet) same result. push in the brake, same quik short of elec, tach drops but sometimes comes back up. sunroof/window switches also give me same result but only when motor would be stressing or when its already closed and im pushing switch to close. Bad ground? fried electrical parts somewhere?
i have a volt meter, no jumps or power loss in that, voltage or the light, light is connected using a fuse in fuse box.
and the temp is reading all the way in the red sometimes usually after the power jumps, and its not close to overheating

just tighted up all engine grounds, bout to sand down all contact points and screws to make sure it gets a good ground. have complete crashed prelude in back still have all elec parts, already started switching out relays.
