The cables are rated to 110a... anyone see any problems with making one up this way?

Positive terminal > starter > alternator

110A should be fine. Im using 16mm 110A wire to the back of my car where the battery is relocated. The wire doesnt even get warm and the peak current will be when you start the car. If you want piece of mind get the 25mm 125 or is it 135A wire?

What's the battery's cold cranking current?

I've seen ones capable of really quite a lot, I believe mine is 250A.
