Not starting when hot is a classic sign of a bad coil, or sometimes, a bad condenser.

First of all, where's your electric pump wired in?
Am I correct to understand that the starter engages and the engine is turning over? And it just isn't firing? You may want to check for power at the coil. There's a chance that the electric fuel pump is wired to your ignition switch, which would make sense if your switch was bad. I would be checking your ignition switch and going out from there.
