Battery cable size
What is the correct gauge size for the battery cables on My '59 F100 with the 223? The ground cable, and cable from solenoid to starter are both made up from huge 1/0 gauge welding cable,positive cable was gone) I thought these were way too big. So I need to know what size I need to go buy for the cables

Thick battery cables were used with 6 volts, 12 volt battery cables are much thinner.
1957/60 F100/600:
Positive battery cable-battery to starter relay: 19 1/2" long / Negative battery cable-battery to ground: 18" long.
