Default need helpppppp !!!

Ok so heres the story as i was driving around new orleans i shifted into second and then my car dies i open the hood to find out my positive battery terminal has been melted i have checked ground wires on everything, replaced battery, alternator, i took the starter in and the voltage regulator failed so i replaced that too, and also i replaced the crankshaft sensor, checked the fuel pump and it comes on when i turn the key, has spark and is getting fuel..itll crank up but wont start and when i look at my gauges the batterly level is extremly low for a brand new battery...what are some other things i could check or look at to solve my problem ???

Get the "new" battery tested, make sure its not a dud.

Make sure the cable that melted is getting a good connection. Is it damaged as in deformed from when it melted?
