The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Electrical Bay What gauge battery/starter cable on a 42 Chevy with original 6V?

I cannot remember where I read that 2 gauge was used with 6v.

Nonetheless, I use 00 (2/0) gauge. Tractor Supply Company sometimes has them.

For what it is worth, it looks lie the Master Parts Catalog gives the following "equivalents" from Packard:

hot cable: CL-39
ground strap: 5L-14
