I am programming a 328p which is on a custom board, through an uno with arduino as isp. I can successfully burn a bootloader but trying to upload code spits out this error.
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x66
I am worried as in the bootloader output it states the oscillator as off

How is the the target clocked?
Have you adjusted the target's fuses?
I am using the 8mhz internal clock that I set with the bootloader
Sorry if ive misunderstood the question, could you clarify what your asking?
What bootloader did you upload?
Do you plan on programming this device later on using the Tx/Rx inputs? If NO then you don't need a bootloader.
I used the minicore library, I would prefer to program over Rx/tx
Have you adjusted the target's fuses?
I if understand correctly I have changed it from using a 16mhz external clock to the 8mhz internal
Does your custom board include an auto-reset circuit?
Nothing, straight to pin 10 on the uno
When you try uploading to your custom board are you manually resetting? Just before uploading?
I have tried with and without manually resetting the uno just before it uploads
Reburn the bootloader. Post the entire output.

avrdude done. Thank you.
My understanding is the bootloader speed must match the processor speed.
I've downloaded:
One is for 1Mhz clock, the other for a 12Mhz clock.
Does your bootloader match your processor speed (clock)?
I've selected that it is using the 8mhz internal crystal in the minicore boards drop-down. In my understanding this changes the bootloader

That is correct. The bootloader which was compiled for 8 MHz processor clock will be automatically used by the Arduino IDE's "Burn Bootloader " operation when you have that menu item selected.
The "8000000L" in the optiboot_flash_atmega328p_UART0_38400_8000000L_B5.hex file name signifies that it was compiled for 8 MHz.
The fuses look correct. (https://www.engbedded.com/fusecalc/ )
The path to the bootloader indicates the correct one is being used...
atmega328p
/8000000L
/optiboot_flash_atmega328p_UART0_38400_8000000L_B5.hex
The burn was successful.
That leaves three things...
The upload baud rate is wrong. This seems unlikely. Choosing the correct target should be enough to get the correct baud rate. It's easy to test: just change upload to verbose then eyeball the top of the output.
You have been unlucky with manual reset. This seems unlikely. You've made several attempts before and after starting an upload.
The TTL-to-USB path is broken. This seems to be the only one left standing.
Try uploading, using ICSP, a simple echo program. The program should write to the serial port everything read from the serial port. In Serial Monitor select the same baud rate used in the echo program then send something. If the sent thing is echoed back then the TTL-to-USB path is fine. If not then that is probably the trouble.
I suggest 9600 or 125,000 baud for the test program. The slew on 9600 is low enough to be irrelevant and 125,000 is a zero error baud for an AVR processor running at 8 MHz. (http://wormfood.net/avrbaudcalc.php ) (http://wormfood.net/avrbaudcalc.php?bitrate=125k&clock=8&databits=8 )
I believe that bootloader includes blinking the pin 13 LED. Do you have an LED connected to pin 13? Does it blink three times about once a second after a reset?
