Black- 94 Z28
ok so im back and getting back to the z28 that wont crank
So today i was looking at the car turned the key and hear a click from the starter and then nothing else no crank or signs of it wanting to start battery on full charge and i had my brother test the starter to see if it was getting power and they said the thin wire the ground was not getting anything so if im right there is power going into it from the thicker cable of the starter but no crank and idea what i can do next

Tap on the starter with a long socket extension while someone is cranking the car.

So the car cranks, but won't fire? Or is it still clicking when you turn the key?

If I recall correctly, were you the one who installed the head cam and did it yourself?

Yeah i did the headers and the car wants to crank when i turn the key but the jumper has to be on the starter and make contact for it to want to start and then i just hear like one piston fires and skips idk two or three and pops sounds wierd but at least i get a crank
