I had what I thought was pretty bad heat soak problems with the factory starter. But, it never took hours or days to recover. Still, I went to a mini starter and never looked back.

Also to reinforce what HWYSTR455 said above, if you are currently running your VA (assuming you're running VA) from ported vacuum, it will run cooler at idle by switching to manifold. Remember that the factory used manifold until emission concerns led them to switch to ported. That seems like a no brainer to me.
