Battery post / cables
Is it a big deal to use 3/8 lugs on 5/16 battery post? I am doing a 4x6v GC battery install with 4/0 wire and have 3/8 lugs.

I use stranded welding cable myself with solid copper TEWCO lugs. I tin the cable ends and crimp on the connectors with a hydraulic crimper. Welding cable by the foot (at any welding supply outlet) is less expensive than a pre-made cable plus you can make them to the exact length you need.
HF has a nice hand held hydraulic crimper for 50 bucks.
