I read online where some car builders replaced the battery to starter lead wire with a larger size wire, to improve starting power.
Anyone do this? Worthwhile? What size wire, if so? Thanks |

I just replaced mine recently with a 0guage power and a 0guage ground to the bottom bolt. It cranks noticabley faster. Not sure if it was the ground or power or both. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
But I like POWER FLOW (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
