Older starters without the gear reduction of many modern starters do draw a lot of current, I'm thinking hundreds of amps is normal. You possibly already have done this but try removing the clamps at the battery and make sure they are not corroded clean and replace. Are you checking voltage from the battery post or from the cable clamp? What type of load tester are you using? If you knew exact reserve power of the battery you could work out starter current using voltage drop.
1990C4S, I have read about parasitic current from material building up in the solenoid contact area.
