Hey guys, I did the cable switch, on my '53 COE yesterday. Made a world of difference. Also installed a fresh 6 volt battery. You can't use 2 gage battery cables from your local Pep Boys, Autozone, etc., it's not as big as 2/0 gage Industrial cable. I purchased about 20 ft. of "Belden Battery Cable", from one of the local Big Truck shops. I plan to redo the battery cables on three of my COE's
