    we put the battery back in the classic position when we do a turbo, it's easy.

    20 feet is a little overkill for the positive wire I think. Why not just go to your local audio shop and get them to cut you a piece of wire?

    Go to your local welding shop and get plain, 0 gauge, black wire. It'll be the cheapest and has a more durable insulation and is normally more flexible, making it easier to work with.
