Starter wiring

02 Apr 2017 Starter wiring

Installed the giant starter wire. It’s a fat wire from Eric M. Jones’s Perihelion Design http://www.periheliondesign.com/fatwires.htm (Super-2-CCA, AWG#2) so it should flow plenty of electrons.

It’s about 42″ long, and supported in 5 places including the ends, which seems good.  It’s quite stiff.

Here it’s supported with a WDG-12 cushion clamp (Adel Clamp) so that it can slide a bit when the engine moves.

Supported with a 0.5″ delrin offset to both keep it from touching the firewall, provide space for the off screen fuel return line, and to align it better with the contactor.
