I just put new header bolts and copper gaskets in my 400 big block and before it ran and cranked fine, I went to crank it up and it cranked up as usual but I heard something like my heater on so I turned it off and it still was there, so I turned off the switch the engine died but the starter kept turning until I took the positive off. And now every time I touch the positive side on the battery the starter comes on with the keys in my pocket. Whats wrong? Water did come out of the exhaust studs did some get in the starter or sumthing?

Probably the starter solenoid on the fender is stuck, tap on it and see if it'll quit. If not, you need a new one.
