I'm having the same problem. I've ruled out the starter. I'm running 10.25/1 compression so I got one of those high torque jobs and it kicks butt. Not the timing, and it's getting fuel. I'm thinking the coil is getting hot and is the weak link. It's mounted to the manifold. I'm going to try a heat wrap, to help insulate it. Then maybe move it to the firewall of the fender apron. With the headers things get pretty hot under the hood, and thats the last thing I can think of whose preformance would be effected by the temp.
