You will probably have trouble finding 0 or 00 gauge, I don't think anyone stocks them in the boonies where I live. I don't think it gets very cold where you live, that is what requires the most amperage. If not, 2 gauge will be fine. I think most 12 volt systems have 6. My 6 volt Super A still at least one of the 6 gauge on it that were there when I purchased it -- It starts easily in warm weather, forget it when it gets cold. Most battery/cable problems are caused by lack of use. If you start it occasionally and keep the connections clean you will have fewer problems. 12 volt allows you to get by with less maintenance than a 6 volt system requires. Large cables allows you to get by with less maintenance on a 6 volt system, so you are kind of working around the problem, i.e. maintenance -- I don't like to do it either.
