All I would like is a list of what I need to get it done, and possibley a little guidance while I do this @ Reading... Any takers?

If you're like most of us on this forum, you don't have ANY close friends (except for us on this forum).
8 feet of 4-gauge wire is more than enough, with six 5/16" ring connectors (one for each end of the 3 cables you're gonna fabricate). As for tools, you'll need a wire stripper or a pocketknife, a crimping tool or a pair of pliers, and metric wrenches to undo the bolts you're gonna connect the connectors to.
You could really go way out on the quality continuum and crimp AND solder the connectors, and probably dress the installation up in all kinds of ways, but I think I covered the basics.
svxcess has a great description and pics in his locker - his is a very clean and professional install.
BTW - I won't be at Reading, so if this blows up in your face, you can't do anything about it.
