Have you checked all your ground cables?
-starter itself
-battery cables
Are the wires connected good on the starter?
Thats all I can suggest. Somebody else here will have more and/or better ideas

Put a voltmeter from the starter wire (AT the starter) to the block and see what it is WHILE it's cranking. Repeat across the battery. Post those 2 readings and the reading across the battery at rest.

are you sure the motor is seized?
that doesn't happen very often. (With a 6 cylinder)
You can spin the motor with a socket and a ratchet on the crank pully. If it is an older motor you can turn it very slowly by hand, a little.
If it is a manual you can always pull start it.
