I used 16mm2, 110 AMP. De-soldered the existing cable from the starter motor, filed the internal connection flat with a needle file and replaced it with a button head screw from inside ( 6mm I think ) with a washer and nut on the outside with enough thread to take an eyelet and nut and put an eyelet on the new cable with a rubber boot, therefore no joints from starter solenoid to motor.

What he said...
Replace the entire length, don't extend it.  With high currents, joints = overheating = unreliability.

Thanks for advice I will give it a try
