[Nugg32 10+ year member]

so i did a measurement on my battery posts and i cant find terminals to fit over my posts. all i can find are 3/8 or 5/16..

this is how i measured the post. not the safest way and not even sure if its the correct way

i can have them custom made .cost will depend on how many 0 gauge holes with set screws you want

well, im trying to do the big three so i need 2 of them to fit my battery terminals, im not sure what size for my alt but id probably like about 10 of them. i only need one 11/16 and one 5/8 im pretty sure.

no i'n talking about a battery mount distro block ,that mounts to the posts and then you can attach all the wires you need into the side holes .something like these it would be a set ,one for power and one for ground

bare with me here cause im not sure what exaxtly this is, If i got this right, with that block all i have to do is set the block on my battery posts and than i can just slip my 1/0 gauge into the holes, screw them down and im done? no ring terminals needed?

you got it ,and the blocks tighten up on the posts as well

Well i need some that will fit 11/16+ and 5/8 - im also not sure how many holes i would need. I think i need 1 hole for my power wire 1 for my alt to my positive 1 for ground i think and 1 for my negative wire. does that sound right for running 1 amp and the big three?

use a step bit to drill out the ring terminals, simple as that...

i couldnt find any that were big enough to drill them to 11/16, if i could i would do that but im probably going to see what kind of price the distro block is going to be that mylows10 was talking about

why not just get a marne style terminal for your battery or doing like what jim was saying and get toolmaker to make one for ya with multiple inputs
