boominz71 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Posted March 6, 2010 well i'll probably get bashed for askin this but i have a bunch of 4 guage ring terminals and and 0 zero guage terminals lol so i was wondering if i cut the 1/0 down to fit in the 4 guage terminals how much current will i lose i dont plan on competing so if its just a lil i dont care but if its a lot i'll just order some online
Guest Posted March 6, 2010 Report Posted March 6, 2010 you will be fine as long as your amplifier has 4 gauge inputs. just make sure you cut the LEAST amount of strands needed to get the 1/0 gauge into the 4 gauge ring...things. edit: bulletinjection winz...

Why not just use the 1/0 terminals for the 1/0 wire lol My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection
Boon Posted March 6, 2010 Report Posted March 6, 2010 4/0 isn't 4 gauge. It's 0000 gauge. Just FYI. 10.x volts fo' life!
boominz71 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Posted March 6, 2010 because i have zero zero guage terminals, but i have like 10 4 guage terminals and i just need them for the big and grounding in the rear my main power wire has zero guage terminals but ordered a new alt and need to do big 3 and do some better grounds in the rear and if i can save a few bucks by using 4 guage rings and not lose to much thats fine by me

This way later down the road you don't have to buy all new wire and terminals My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection
cvxsmitty58 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Posted March 6, 2010 Why not just spread the 4ga terminals out and then put the 1/0 in and crimp it closed as much as you can then solder it
