How did you upgrade starter wires? Larger gauge? How does it help? ... I also charge my 40ahr deep cycle battery at night. I have an on-board 25amp "smart charger"...

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
