Only problem, besides price, for the Powerwerx custom cables is that they don't have twisted pair....  only parallel conductors.

Looks like I can order a custom cable from powerwerx.com with 75 amp 
power poles and 6g wire (assuming that's the correct size).

The crimp tool is not too expensive so it may be worth buying the tool 
and rolling my own.  I've used 15,30 and 45 amp PP's for years, just 
never had a need for 75 amp PP's so I never purchased the equipment.
