he he. Not hardly...
The starter will easily draw over 50 amps, and under load
can pull a couple hundred amps - possibly more.
Remember, the body electrical is rated for 30 amp continuous
so a 20A switch is undersized just for _running_ the vehicle.
My congrats, though, for you wanting to install a cutoff switch.
Worthless if you don't need it and priceless if you do. I use the
'twist-knob' type that goes right on the battery post.
