What was the failure? Did the terminals melt? If the suspected cause of failure was loose terminals, all the heat generated from the loose terminals would have literally melted them due to the high resistance at that point. Dual 4D should be plenty to start just about any Marine Diesel.

What space is provided for the batteries? How many cranking amps does your starter/engine required? More details about what the failure symptoms were?
