BatteryCablesUSA.com good stuff
Couple years ago I was having difficulty with hot starts. Swapping to 2awg fixed the problem. Fast forward to this past fall and a bad engine fire from a faulty fuel rail. Things got so hot that the battery began to melt. The battery wire i purchase from BatteryCableUSA.com show no damage. That's good stuff.

That's awesome to know. I just redid my battery cables in my '70 with 2AWG wire and all the terminal ends and solder supplies from batterycablesusa.com. Great stuff, fast shipping, and made in USA!

Re: BatteryCablesUSA.com good stuff
Thanks for asking. It sustained major damage. I am retired so I just decided to make it my new full time job. Easily been on it 40 hours a week since early October. Hagerty insurance has been fantastic to work with. They allow self repair. I had 30k stated value. They ended up covering me with 21k. I was good with documentation, they were generous on everything I requested and they reimbursed me for my time as well. I did not bill all the hours I spent simply because I work very slow and also did things outside of damage. Initially I was sad as I spent 18 months getting it just how I wanted it. 3 weeks after completion, a fuel rail/injector connection sprayed the engine bay down and ignited. I lost most everything from the dash in cab to the radiator. It was a very hot fire.
