Re: Battery/starting issues

Since my High Desert Oregon shop is not insulated yet and gets bitterly cold and very hot for long periods of time, I have a roof-mounted 100 watt solar panel and charge controller to keep them active when I'm not there. It seems to work quite well and doesn't overcharge. Ultimately the shop will be totally solar powered (120v and 240v) with enough to even run the compressor and small MIG welder.

Does anyone know the proper cable lengths for the '51 to '54 models? I'm finally about to start doing some work on my 1954 Patrician and that will be the first thing to be replaced while adding a new battery.
