The starter blanket might help with the other end of the equation which is heat soak. BTW I bought a starter blanket a while back but was unsuccessful getting it to fit around the starter. It’s a very small and tight space to work with.

The real test may be in july/august...

I showed where I installed the cable in the last video. It’s pretty straightforward. No doubt the summer heat can make this even worse but my car suffered from slow cranking in any weather whenever the engine was fully warmed up and I made multiple short stops.
