Default Replaced LS1 clutch with LS6 - now starter jams

So, like the title says... I just replaced the 2000 camaro clutch with a an LS6 clutch kit (part #12570806) and now the starter jams and won't turn the engine over.

What can I do to resolve this?

Should be the same setup, have you tried turning the engine over by hand just a tad. Sometimes the starter is in that one pain in the *** spot where it wont mesh.

Yeah, thought it would work without any issues. I did turn the engine over a bit by hand but no dice. The starter just clicks and can't seem to turn it over.

It ended up being the battery ground.
