Guys just got my Spruce order sent down under.. You don't what to know the shipping price.
Anyway I ordered some colored battery wire thinking it was 4awg and find out its 6 awg.

How critical is the difference given that the piper sport is wired 6awg and my aircraft is a simple vfr Dynon with a Jab 3300. All bobs drawings have 4 AWG but my limited understanding thinks 6 would do the job.

What do you all think.? Battery , master sol , start sol to starter?
Chris

Go ahead and try it. If the engine cranks OK, 6 AWG is good enough. If not, try some larger welding cable, especially for longer distances.
