Are you sure the starter is wired up correctly? Is the battery wire harness hooked up correctly?
Are you sure the waterpump isn't seized somehow?

Dont know bout the 1st problem but I've had my starter on my truck stick on, the appendix, i think its called? It stuck on and continued to crank, but i didnt let it drain my battery, you should have took the neg on the battery off.

I dont know if its called the appendix but its something like that, its the thing that pushes the gear out to hit the flywheel if it sticks it will continue to crank, on my truck when it would stick i hit it with a peice of wood and it got unstuck and was good to go.
