Don't know what happened to the lengths I had for early A battery cable lengths. If someone has a V8 a body and can get me lengths, I'd really appreciate it.
Best to use a string or wire and mirror the routing.
Stock cable from battery post center to center of starter ring terminal
Starter to starter relay wire. It is usually captured/wrapped back on the main cable for a short distance.
Total length measurement
Length from starter ring center to break out point from wrap.
Battery to Starter relay, same as the starter to relay approach if it is wrapped
Total length measurement
Length from battery post center to break out point from wrap.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the header crew Can be measured on a non header car
Another set for going back to the firewall from starter post center, up and across to fenderwell (go below mastercylinder), forward to battery post center.
Same deal for the other two wires with break outs from the main cable. They both will run along with the main cable the majority of the distance.
Thanks
