    todays subject is Battery Cables

    make your own from 2ga welding cable...any AutoZone will have the ends...cut the cable to length and sweat the ends on...2ga welding cable carries 300 amps for 100ft...

    for those of you with your batt in the trunk...weld a bolt(head to frame) for an extra ground both close to the batt and on the inner frame rail close to the starter...ground the batt & the engine to these(batt/elec fuel pump in rear...engine & ignition up front)...run both positive AND negative cables to the front...use the ground bolt on the front of the car to ground your ignition box...i always had a positive lug close to the front negative to use to power the fuse block or fused switch box...your ignition will perform much better if you do this...total cost, less than 50 bucks
