I'm replacing the battery cables on 2 914's. Are they 4ga? Any recommendations for or against cable types? Welding cable, electrical cable, strand count, sheathing minimum's, etc. TIA, Kent

Good afternoon everyone,

A quick question please. What is the ideal size for a battery for a 1.8 914 plus the amp hour rating?

Many thanks from sunny north west France.

Very many thanks, but in Europe they don't use that group style of classification they always use a code but its the actual size I am after.

Any ideas please?
