Buy some welders cable from Paramount Browns (bout $8 p/m last time I checked) You will need roughly 6 metres or so. Run that from the starter motor post to the battery, then run a smaller cable from the starter post to the alternator. Run any other cables that run to the positive terminal in the engine bay to the starter motor post also. Then run an earth (as big as the positive cable) from the battery to the body and from the engine block to the body.
