the guys saying sinc ei have headers in case if the wires melt and ground it wint cause a fire under the hood so they looking to go bigger in the fuse
Bigger is not always better (insert jokes here). Got to stick with the correct amp rating so it will blow in the same condition a fusable link will. Going bigger can be the cause of a fire. Best protection for the contact with the headers is a good quality/proper heat rated insulated sleeve to cover them & do the best to secure them away from the header. Here is a good company to look at for what would be needed to go with a fuse instead of the fusable links. https://www.ronfrancis.com/

that is one of the reason I use a ford style solenoid so the cable from the solenoid going to the starter only has current in when I am starting the car...
