Has the engine been recently rebuilt? If we've 100% ruled out the starter, battery cables and grounds, then one thought would be to use a torque wrench on the main crank bolt (up front) and see if the engine is a lot 'tighter' when hot. The torque readings can tell you this. Another thought is to pull the plugs when hot and see if it acts a lot differently.
Good luck and please report back.

I know you are completely correct. The point on ignition was if you crank for longer then you should and it doesn't fire, something is going on besides running your battery down. Timing etc....
Most electrical and "fuel" issues are just bad grounds. Don't quote me.
