also if anyone knows where i could rent crimpers from and a heat gun like any chain of part stores that usually have them i just got off the phone with autozone i figured they would have some but they dont have crimpers or a heat gun just wondering if any body knows of a different place i could rent from

You have to go to a tool rental place....RSC Equipment is the major one up here...try them if you have one close

Heavy Duty, Aftermarket, Custom Battery Cables for your Car, Truck or RV for custom made cables or parts (and great advice too). If you look there they also have the correct length of cables listed.
Use 2/0 welding cable. I would strongly suggest crimping instead of soldering. I did a couple of solder joints and didnt like the results. You dont have to buy a crimper you can rent them for a day.
Heres what mine turned out like:
