Heat Soak on my starter with longtubes, Whats a good fix?

Running both the Hi Torque Mini Starter and the OEM air deflector.

But I'm going to check battery connections because I let the car cool down for like a couple hours, still wouldn't start without a jump pack. I have jumper studs going straight to the starter, so I think either the starting battery is cooked or just a connection on it came loose (measures 14.4v so I think batt is good).

Check your ground connection to the starter also. I had one once that measured good voltage but wouldn’t start, it turned out to be a bad ground.

Starter currently pulls ground just through it bolting to the block. Engine is grounded with a thicc cable, both to the chassis and to the battery. Even after half a day now, doesn't want to start. So I'm thinking it's not the starter so much anymore (never really had this problem ever since putting a lilthium standalone battery just for the starter). I think it's either loose or just dead even though the charger I paid a lot of money for says otherwise.

is that lithium battery in the trunk or the stock location?
