Re: Chevy starter issues
Some of those GM trucks and vans had a flat braided ground wire from the pass side engine block to the frame. They like to rot off and cause problems like yours.

Re: Chevy starter issues
I had a similiar problem with a non GM vehicle, it would start fine then let you down when it was least expected. The cure was found when while attempting to start smoke was observed coming out of one of the battery cables, it was replaced and problem went away.

Re: Chevy starter issues
Most of the suggestions are good, check your battery cables with an ohm meter for high resistance. after as many miles as you are stating the cables may have incurred corrosion. The cables would be affected by under hood temperature.
