Cut them back past the plastic channel and remove the channel altogether. They get dry and brittle and fall apart due to engine heat. Just 1 wire from the alternator to the battery

Ain't gonna happen, trust me. The best cable out there is Knukonceptz Kolossus Fleks 4 Gauge
And the BEST fuses for high-current alternator fusing applications is the Mega Fuse by Littlefuse.
