View attachment 361863 View attachment 361864 View attachment 361865 View attachment 361866 This is my partially wired trunk. The 1/0 positive cable runs up the left side under the wiring chase cover over the rocker panel and is inside a length of wire loom for extra protection. I am using the body for a ground also. It has worked in 2 of my other cars. My battery switch as you can see is behind the license plate. The large terminal module is a Powercell for the Infinity Box wiring system. The small box below that is the freq drive for the A-1000 in the fuel cell.

Wow this is nice !! thinking on 4-Linking the rear and noticed your Tubs, Would you mind a pic of the interior Tubs ?

Thanks but I can't take credit. The chassis builder did that work. I posted it at reference as I think it was a nice job packaging everything higher with the suspension below.

I will take some pics of the tubs later this weekend.

old post I know - those are NICE looking cables. Where can I source those? All of the off-the-shelf cables I'm finding are terrible quality. Some say make your own. I never have done that and can learn, but would prefer good quality already done by someone who knows.

Thanks. However, shop that built car, guy before me did them. I did a search and does not appear they mfg them anymore. Company was "Streetwires". Looks like they were a car audio wire/cable supplier.

I did find some nice other cables searching for top post battery terminal ends.

I used those same battery terminals and their matching boots. I think I got them from Amazon or Summit. I made all my cables using a Harbor freight hydraulic crimper. I bought # 64044 as its has America cable wire size crimper dies. Most crimpers out their are metric. I used 1/0 cable. I used heat shrink that has a glue coating inside. When you heat shrink it the glue melts and makes a sealed crimp. The 1/0 cable has 2 layers of protective shield, a white inner one and a red or black outer one. I got the Red and Black cables, terminals, and heat shrink from "gaugewireandcable" on e-bay.

I purchased this hammer operated crimper online somewhere. It works well.
