The "Big 3" Power Cable
I know that there was a topic on this but cannot find. It was about using bigger power cable between the alternator and the battery resulting in better current flow. Anybody with info pipe in please!

The more mcm (million circular mil) area means less resistance. In other words, increase the awg size for lesser resistance. With the short runs of all these cables, I can't see any significant advantage gained. Just my .02.
