I just installed a set of cables from Motolectric, the HICAP II. These are made of oxy free copper, including the terminals, and they have 1666 strands of wire in them, with silicone insulation. Before when my DB5R was stone cold I could hear the starter laboring in getting the big twin to turn over, and it would take numerous try's to get it running. With these new cables it jumps to life! It was in the upper 30's this morning and it started like it was fully warmed up.
These things are really worth the cost, I think, at 85 US dollars.
