Our Healey’s use 4 Ga stranded and there are two common options. PVC insulated and rubber insulated. Automotive wire is the PVC insulated version and made to an SAE Standard. I would ignore all of this and buy a good quality premade cable from a known supplier that has all of the proper tools and equipment to properly crimp the end connections.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Harold<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0in'><b>From: </b><a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">Michael Salter via Healeys</a><br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, April 20, 2022 9:54 AM<br><b>To: </b><a href="mailto:bspidell@comcast.net">Bob Spidell</a><br><b>Cc: </b><a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">healeys@autox.team.net</a><br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Healeys] Battery cable</p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>I know that originality was not a requirement insofar as Ray was concerned but I thought I would mention, for those interested, that Autosparks actually stock exact original specification battery cable <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><a href="https://www.autosparks.co.uk/electrical-components/cables/170-amp-braided-battery-cable-black-37-0-90">https://www.autosparks.co.uk/electrical-components/cables/170-amp-braided-battery-cable-black-37-0-90</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>M<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
