For Gsharpa,
Hot start can have many causes. Does it crank easily if you remove the coil wire? How much inital timing advance do you have? Does it smell like gas when you try and start it. Did you clean off the grounding tab along the framerail to which the motor ground cable is attached? With that BB you'll want a battery with a bunch of cranking amps.
