Default Help, it will not start

I have a 1975 L-48 nobody has been able to figure out why after driving my vette for a short perid of time, then turning the engine off. It will not start. Replaced starter, batter and cables, added heat shield and switch to turn off batter when car is sitting in garage. When trying to start i get no noise from starter or anthing else.

Do you have headlights? Have you checked the fuse links? The connector for this harness (which the links are on ) is on the fire wall and extend to the starter. If they are burned out the insulation will appear burnt and rubbery. This harness is part of the starter circuit. If they are okay then check your ignition module.
