Posted February 4, 201510 yr comment_462978 Hi, just purchased some battery cables(pos. and neg) and noticed that the ground has a butt connection instead of a ring terminal to screw into the firewall. Would anyone have the length for the ground cable to the firewall and also the length of the main ground wire? Also the positive cable length. I am attaching a pic from http://www.new-datsun-parts.com/. Thanks, mo Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/50895-240z-battery-cable-lengths/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
