test for a voltage drop at the starter while cranking to ensure your positive cable is ok. Should be getting around 11.5-12v. If thats okay make sure that the starter is acutally engadging with the ring gear.

I have gotten "new starters" that wheren't worth a crap, try cleaning all your post and connections, make sure its grounded good, and maybe have the starer tested. Cant be nothing more than this.
