Gauge?

Those of you who have their battary in the trunk, what gauge of wire did you use? Going to do it this weekend, any help would be great. Thanks

2 gauge should be plenty large enough. Just make sure that you ground it with the same size wire. Are you putting it in a battery tray and are you using a gel cell battery or a conventional?

Here's a pic of the trunk mount. Ground wire is bolted from the battery to the 'frame' section in the rear and another 2 gauge wire is bolted from the eng. block to the frame in the front. The positive wire goes through the trunk floor to a remote shut off sw. and from the sw. over the rear end, up the inside of the left pinch rail and behind the inner fenderwell to the stater solenoid.
