wierd symptoms..where to start looking??

I did a 350 tpi swap done about 6 months ago. Runs great.

On thurs. night @ 1030 pm (approx. 65 deg.) my car wouldnt start....all it would do was crank over and over and not start. I left my car there and went to work...came back in the morning and it started right up on the first try.

Since Thurs. my car has been absolutely fine. No problems. This morning (approx 60deg) its doing the same thing. I checked the battery and cables with an ohmeter and everything seems fine. Checked all fuses. There is plenty of gas in the car, and I checked the spark plug wires. I dont know where else to look. I have a feeling that if I when I try again in a few hours its going to start right up again.

This may not be relevent but: I Dont know if the temp has anything to do with it. My car has the cold start injector, but Im not sure if the chip that I ordered from tpiparts.net has the code for the 9th injecotr programmed.
