John S Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Is the wire on the positive battery cable that connects to the terminal block on the radiator support that feeds power to the car is that a fusible link, or is it just a wire?

I see a lot of cars eliminating that fusible link and running an eight gauge wire to handle more power. Is that advisable or is that something you should not be done?

MC1of80 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Depends on how comfortable you are. That's what I have done to many of our Monte Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 If you get an aftermarket wiring harness like American Auto Wire, they'll use a 6 gauge charge cable, but protect it with a 175 amp 'mega fuse'. They also use a mega fuse from there to feed the rest of the vehicle. Best of both worlds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
