Your problem is most likely found in your wiring and wiring connections.
Your battery cables MUST be 00 gauge - basically welding cable. Your grounds MUST be perfect. Disconnect the ground wire from the the starter to the frame and wire brush the connections. Swap the woven belt for a 00 gauge cable. Make sure the battery is fully charged to ~6.3-6.5 volts
