Then you pull the cap and the rotor is pointing directly at the #1 plug wire and then you check the order of the wires 5 times and they are correct to the firing order on the cap and meet the correct plug holes. And then you pull a #1 plug and rotate the engine till you see spark on the plug end and stop immediately and pull the cap again and the rotor is on #1 plug wire again. I ask then how could it be out of time? What then am i missing?

It is obvious the rotor is pointing to #1 When it sparks!!! It Doesn't prove anything?????
Keep it simple. One step at a time. You are over thinking it when you don't have the first step sorted.
STEP 1; Buy a timing light!
Number 1 is the front plug on the passenger side!
Crank it over on the starter and check the position of the timing mark on the pulley
