Fusible link gauge?

[Jehannum]

Hey all, '71 240Z with electrical issues here.

 

My coolant circuit sprung a leak, right over the starter.  This shorted everything to ground, and ended up letting the smoke out of both the fusible link (between the white w/red stripe harness wire and the starter) and the ammeter.

 

I'm swapping over to a '76 volt meter, so the interior stuff is taken care of, but I need to replace the fusible link.  It looks to my eye like a 10 or a 12ga. wire, but I figured I'd tap the brain trust here since one of you probably knows it off hand (and since searching fusible linke gauge returns nothing...).

 

Of note is the fact that I have a rear-mounted battery with a kill switch behind the license plate (the alternator charging wire runs to the kill switch instead of the starter).

Fusible links are typically 4 wire gauge sizes smaller than the wire they protect. The white/red wire in the Z is roughly 10 gauge so the fusible link should be 14 gauge.

Thanks!
