Have you tried replacing the battery cables and cleaning all of your grounds? I've had problems with SBC's not wanting to start when hot, but not when they're cold.

Does it crank?

Do you have power inside the car currently?

Then your fusable links are good. Should be a loose connection as already mentioned. Double check bat cables and that all starter wires are tight and on the correct terminal.
