Battery cables - opinions wanted

Alrighty. My '37 120 (still 6V) starts great. It currently has 2/0 cable running from the positive terminal to the starter, and a braided ground. I have a Cole-Hersee shutoff switch to install (the BIG one), and want to switch my positive battery cable to the correct appearance braided one.

I ordered the wrong parts for this job a while back, but never did it. I ordered 1/0 cable.

Do I order 2/0 braided cable, or do I run the 1/0? Thanks in advance!

Edit - I understand 2/0 is bigger. Looking for any practical experience with 1/0 before I waste a bunch of money buying new parts if what I have will work.
