as long as they will fit on the guage wire that you need and hook good to your battery post you'll be fine.

id take it off and get a new one soldered on, the reason i stepped up from 2/0 to 4/0 battery cable is because i got it at a discount

when you did this did your starter sound different when you cranked it over? Or is it possible to not get the starter in properly? I just did mine tonight and it sounds funny but starts fine. do I maybe need to tighten it up again?

Cut about 3 ft of a shop floor broom handle or buy a 1" wood dow rod. Works great no leaning over the fender. About 50 to 75 strokes and the fuel system is primed.
