chevy engineers were dumb enough to put the starter solenoid right on the starter, between the block and exhaust. they typically have "heat soak" issues because the solenoid is too hot. Short out the chevy solenoid, add a ford solenoid inline, and your chevy will start hot just fine. That is what I did to my last two with that problem (headers)
