starter solenoid wire gauge? 1969

Does anyone know off hand what the wire gauge is for the purple wire and yellow wire ( neutral switch and coil) going to the starter solenoid?

The purple solenoid actuation wire is pretty beasty
I am going to say at least 12, possibly 10 AWG

it's at least a 12ga. possibly 10ga. a thicker wire is a better choice(like a 10ga.)
