I had this problem twice in the last 3 months first time was the dizzy and the second time was a dirty MAF sensor. Hope this helps.

I will try cleaning the MAF, not sure if this is relevant but when I turn the car over to start it bounces clear around past 7k.

pull your intake tube off and make sure your TB blad isnt broken off. I've seen it more times than I care to think about. (usually with BBK TB's)

Still sounds like an igtion/electical problem to me.
Something somewhere isn't grounded out right.
Maybe even an occasional failure in the tach itself, try another one

I checked the throttle body and everything seemed ok, I would think it would be the tach since the car misses as well its not just the tach.
