Re: Battery Cables and Battery Relocation?

Might pull the trigger on ordering everything soon, and I think I settled on 1AWG. The numbers are very close between the two in regard to conductor loss and most folks running 1/O are going from trunk forward, I'm a bit closer than that. I'm not home to measure but I figure its about a 15' run to the firewall or so.

It also keep me from ordering two different size cables for solenoid-starter.

I was planning on 6AWG for heads/cab/core support/fuel tank as well as alternator to battery.
