Sounds like high resistance in one of the battery cables. Need to voltage drop the battery cables to see which one is causing the problem. Anything above .5 volt is considered high resistance.

Run a wire from the small terminal on the starter solenoid that has the purple wire on it to your batt.
Touch it (hard ) on the Pos terminal
If the same clicking happens you have the problem mentioned above with your main batt cables.bad , dirty , loose connections usually
If it now cranks over properly, you have a problem with the power from the Ign switch
which includes the switch ,starter relay , P/N switch and the wiring in between.
A bad contact anywhere on that circuit will prevent full power getting to the solenoid so it clicks
