How can I butt connect 2 section of 1 gauge wire used in my battery relocation? Torch and solder? Is there a butt connector?

go to your local stereo store they will have the connectors or something to put that together since they u8se that heavy wire all the time or like a big truck (mack international) shop they also use that heavy wire

I had to grab one for a 4ga run I was doing in my last car. The nicer ones (plated and hex set screws) can be found at stereo shops for about $10-20. Something a bit more "rugged" (not pretty) could probably be found at a hardware store (electrical section) or at a welding supply shop.
