Cool 01 Silverado 5.3ltr no start when warm

this is a heat related issue. the truck will start fine until it gets to operating temp then just dies, no misfire no sputter. and not throwing any codes. it will not start again until engine is cold and starts up fine.
I can only drive about 10 miles then Im hooped or let it sit an Idle for about 30 min then dies and will not start.

things I have done already
new plugs
fuel injector cleaner
new fuel pump
cleaned MAF sensor

any Ideas before I start changing more parts...
