My SWB Zed...
free running atm, however it seems to have some sort of feedback loop or something due to the speed varying under slight differences in load...also when at full lock it doesnt like it and blows fuses. i plan to set up a variable resistor switch to allow me to tweek it once ive sorted these teething problems out. - - - Updated - - -

My SWB Zed...
Well, a little update with the things i have achieved...unfortunately no pics atm. Battery in boot and all wired in. wired my Astra G PS pump in...IT WORKS :tt2: plumbed the pump in. assembled front and rear calipers.... Front calipers: Carbotech XP8 pads with Mtech 350mm Slotted and dimpled Disks. Rear: stock crap as i have no bias valve and no ABS, anything more and id probably lock up. Purchased and fitted my Federal 595RSR's fronts 245/35/18, Rear 285/30/18. The rears turned out to be a bit thinner than i thought so they have a bit of stretch which some people will dislike but they are there to stay. Bled all brakes with some DOT 5.1 Bled PS and blew a few fuses in the process haha.

moving battery to the boot. what amp cable do i need
Yeah the stock cable doesn't haven any fusing on it anyway, it's just piece of mind really.

moving battery to the boot. what amp cable do i need
It's up to you buddy, either way the fuse will blow if you get a short to earth as the current draw is pretty huge. But obviously the closer to the actual cranking current you are the better. Also a 150A fuse could take more, say 170a albeit for a short amount of time (choice of fuse dependant) I'll be using 100A

moving battery to the boot. what amp cable do i need
Well stock there is no fuse between the battery and the starter.. As I found on my car anyway. You will pay a few quid for a high amp CB. I am looking at the inline fuses people use on audio systems. Honestly haven't looked much to see if you can get a high amp fuse but you prob can.
-
moving battery to the boot. what amp cable do i need
The battery cable essentially is the starter cable with other things being tapped off it. The less un-fused wire you have the better. I will be using a fuse around 100A which will sit next to the battery. You need some barrel/butt/inline crimps to connect the new battery cable to the old. Soldering isn't really an option. And some lurvley heat shrink. That cable is exactly what I've used. You should also think about hardwiring the fuel pump. Give that some research.

moving battery to the boot. what amp cable do i need
Minimum 4awg. I used a thick wall amp cable capable of a 170A working current....plenty. My setup will be a little different to yours but the starter cable is larger than 35mm(square) so I've had to go for a 50mm(square) crimp to join it all. My starter/alt cables are connected to a bulkhead post which is connected to the battery on the inside of the bulkhead post. One of these. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/230604795497?nav=SEARCH
