it's the starter getting too hot from the exhaust, seems to be a 350 thing - get some of that pipe/muffler insulation wrap and sleeve the head pipe by the starter and see if it doesn't improve .... that or get the HD starter

also welcome to the garage, there's always help for any problem someplace here grin
