What size and where to find buss bar
What kind of (size) copper buss did you use between the master and starter relays. I cant seem to find any info on the proper size. Vans sells a copper buss for about $23 but no discussion on size and use.

Recheck your price! I used the one that Van's sells for $3.85. Just a strip of copper 12" long by .5" and .063" thick.

I just found a piece of old scrap copper in my junk pile and cut it to the appropriate size, drilled a couple holes and....done.

Take a look
at large diameter copper fittings at Lowes or Home Depot. I cut mine from copper fittings found in their aviation departments... Just cut and flatten to your needs.

1/2 inch copper pipe flattened in the vice. I made it longer than needed so I could add a mounting hole to the bottom. VP-x attached here.

Local metal supply store
Check with your local sheet metal dealer. Most have short ends (scrap) sold by the pound that would do the trick.

I've used a short length (~6") of battery cable (#2 tefzel) bent into a tight U-shaped jumper with terminals on it, to connect the master relay to the starter relay, and mount both relays side-by-side each other with correct spacing for the U-shaped jumper to fit well.
