C5/C6 Corvette Hot Start Kit

C5 / C6 Corvette Hot Start Kit

Eliminate common slow-crank and hot start issues with this premium heavy-duty replacement wiring kit for C5 and C6 Corvettes. Built from ultra-low-resistance, welding-grade copper cable, this kit delivers maximum voltage and reliable starting even in extreme heat or high-compression builds.

Available Options

🔧 Underhood Kit
Includes the essential three cables for:

• Starter power

• Alternator charge

• Primary engine ground

Designed to follow OEM routing where possible, these pre-terminated and weather-sealed 0/2-gauge copper cables provide the foundation for improved cranking and charging performance.

🔋 Full Kit (Remote Battery Upgrade)
Includes everything in the Underhood Kit plus extended-length cables for vehicles with relocated or remote-mounted batteries (trunk-mount conversions, race builds, etc.).
This option ensures complete high-current continuity from the battery to the starter, alternator, and grounds—front to rear.

If you’re unsure of routing or wire length for your configuration, consult a qualified local professional installer.

Optional Upgrade: Retrofit OEM AC Delco Mini Starter

For the ultimate starting solution, both the Underhood and Full Kits are available with an upgraded Retrofit OEM AC Delco Mini Starter.
This high-torque mini starter provides improved clearance, reduced weight, and faster cranking speed—ideal for high-compression or heat-soaked LS engines.

⚙ Note:
Some LS configurations may require minor modification to the solenoid connection (spade terminal vs. ring terminal). This is normal and easily addressed during installation.
