i was prewarned to run big gauge wire and be prepared to use 2 relays when my big pump goes in, and use the stock wired to trigger them.

Probably order 2 of those kits

Sorry, this is the only pic that turned out ok on my phone. The wires go through the grommets and are attached directly to the pump via ring terminals. The ground wire gets grounded using the same bolt that grounds the filler neck. The power wire runs along the frame in a wire loom directly to the relay in the fuse box.

Yeah, they were really tight. We used some gasket maker around the grommets before we put the tank bank up, just to make sure nothing could get in.

It's 10 gauge wire. The coating on the wires is thick, very high quality.

What kind of wire is that? It looks like speaker wire from the pic. Also is it gas proof?

No, they aren't speaker wires. They are ok to be in gas, oil, etc.
