Is that heavy enough for a stock C-10, without air-conditioning or electric fan ??
Yes. Ideally the more strands the better but 4GA is fine. Make sure your ground strap is the same and connected to a good, clean spot on the engine block. Then run ground straps to the frame and body, if possible from the same spot on the block. Bad grounds are the #1 electrical issue that will cause so many of the most random issues people have.
