I think he is trying to get out of paying the 160 for a pair of cables. I'm thinking the lengths of the cables would be in the parts book

Don't know if this will help but here's the order form from my non/AC car, not NCRS judging:

Why would I buy cables for 160.00 from Lectric Limited knowing it is the same gauge that came with the car from the factory which I would think is 4 gauge, Lectric Limited doesn't sell 2 gauge as far as I know. They only sell what came from the factory in that car. C-2 would be standard gauge ( 4 ) Battery Cables USA sell any size you want (complete) for $ 38.50. Is the price I'm paying. Sometimes you do a little bit of leg work you can save some money. As long your happy with your purchase that's all that matters! Look at railroadman post it says it all.Thanks guys for your input

Corvette Central kindly lists the lengths of cables for various configurations.

Well.....when you indicate you want NCRS correct cables (like you did in post #7 of the attached thread), your choices become more expensive and focused.
