I have a CS prop and will be mounting my battery in the rear. The Van's FWF kit comes with BARELY enough 2-gauge wire from the master solenoid to the starter solenoid. I'm annoyed.. I literally have enough cable to go about 1" from my opening in the firewall. So I need to penetrate the FW right under the starter solenoid tab. The crimp on the cable may stick into the penetration conduit.
Since we are supposed to be using steel here for the conduits, I have a problem. I could put heat shrink around the crimp fitting an a small piece of fire sleeve around that to insulate it from the conduit.
Has anybody else had this issue? Should I just go buy $70 of 2-gauge cable to get a longer piece that works?
Also, the 8 is the only kit that has a battery behind the FW option I believe, What hardware did you use to get your battery cable through the firewall?
Thanks for your assistance.
