My positive cable is 33" to 34" long.
It is easier to hide extra length than to find the required length. I have 8mm eyelets crimped on the end. I have also used fabric braid inside the metal conduit for this cable as I never want to have an electrical issue and have to re-do work.

Started on the wiring today 35 o in the shed not the best weather to do it . This was the most frustrating part of my restoration so far hat to do it twice to get it through the conduit , hard work because some wires go to dash other go to reg the rest to solenoid any way lots of sweat and tears but it's now done . Ended up with 9 wires to dash . 5 to reg . 3 to solenoid hope this is correct ?
