What I may do is run the 1/O to the solenoid and then the output solenoid to starter stud in 1AWG.

I purchased it from NAPA so it was 1AWG because it was the biggest they had for making a custom cable. The length on my set-up is not much longer than stock though so that's different (slightly, but different). I also matched the primary ground size @ 1AWG.
All subsequent grounds (6x) were 4ga (motor to frame rails/both sides; core support to frame rails/both sides; cab to frame rails/both sides). Alt to BATT is also 4ga if I remember correctly.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
