Smallest wire safe for 1ft drawing 33 ams?
To make this post not take up a whole page, i ll make this short. My question is: What is the smallest gauge of power wire I can use that will run 1ft that will draw 35 amps?

constant. after thinking about it, i dont think i will do what i wanted to do.
I am mounting my amp on the side of my trunk(im mking a fiberglass/mdf mount for it). i wnted itto look as clean as possible so was going to open the bottom of the amp up and sodler everything to the circuit board and then put the bottom of the amp back on(but have the hles for the wires to go through but the power wires and ground would be too hard to do since they are thick. what im planning on doin is just doing the rcas and the speaker wires like this. i am experienced in doin circuitboard work so it should be no problem to do. when i do have the mount done, i will cut a hole directly underneath the amp so i could feed these wires from the bottm of the amp to where all the wires lead to under the trunk carpet(on the sides). ill just cut 2 holes for the two 8 gauge wires(power and ground, power is off of a 4 gauge fed dist block) to stick throug the mount and have the rest running through the bottom not showing.
