Hard starting on an otherwise healthy engine can be as simple as cleaning your ground wire contacts.

Pull the ground wire off the front trunk stud and make sure everything is bright and shiny. Make sure the flat woven ground strap from the chassis to the ZF is likewise mounted to bright and shiny metal. If you have a chassis to engine block ground, never a bad thing, check those connections, also.

check your large gauge starter wire connections at the starter motor and on the firewall-mounted starter relay.

if nothing improves after performing those tasks at least you will know your connections are solid and then you can proceed on to other troubleshooting steps.
