[Land-speed] Electrical Wiring in Race Car

Does anybody know of a website that has a reference chart on wire sizes needed to wire a car.  Maybe a street rod site or something.  I'm re-wiring my race car and need some help.  I'm not too concerned with wire sizes to each device, as most of them had pigtails and I figure I can just use the same size or next size larger. I even have instructions left for some items. I'm concerned with what size lead I need going to the master fuse panel. I need to supply a monster fuel pump, three cooling fans, the ignition, electric water pump, etc.  Originally, I took all of the individual leads directly off of a master disconnect switch, so they were supplied directly from a battery cable.  Now, I'm going to go from the master switch to a fuse panel, and then to individual toggles. What size wire needs to supply that fuse panel?
  thanks
