Well..thanks again to everyone for the advice. I'm going to change the cables over to 0 or 00, BUT, exactly which ones should I change, just the two leading from the battery (to ground and to the starter)? Also, I was able to get the jam nut loose, but am not sure how to get the screw loose that holds the starter in place. It is slotted for a screwdriver, but I'm worried I'll end up mangling it before it comes loose. How'd you guys go about dealing with this? One more thing...the screw closest to the engine that holds the starter switch in place is stripped..it holds, but is real loose. Any ideas about this as well?

Change all of the cables. You won't regret it.

I assume that you have removed the jam nut. The jam nut should come off first. If there are enough threads exposed, you can jam two nuts together and try to loosen it. Use a penetrant that has lubricating properties (not WD-40). Lightly tap on the head of the screw with a hammer. I agree with Steve. If all else fails, a good vise grip can be very helpful. Make sure it is a good one. Most of the ones in auto stores are almost useless.

If the nut is that hard to get out, I'd guess you have found an inadequate ground.

vice grips work pretty good for bolts that have the heads mangled, or are too tight to back out with a screw driver. you will leave a couple gouge marks in the bolt end, but you can file off the rough edges after removal.
