I threw a new connector on mine, more because the old one had welded to the battery post somehow. The corrosion goes back into the wire, too, so you have to really clean it up good to get a good connection. If I recall, the smaller wire was crimped with the big; you can also get a heavy duty ring lug and reconnect the shorter wire to the mount bolt on the clamp (like the negative side is).
You need a BIG clamp, too, I barely got that massive primary wire into the biggest clamp NAPA had.
Do the negative while you're at it, that's much easier, just bolts onto the trans under the battery, and any generic replacement will work.
