Cabinet busbars and standoffs

Calculator says yours are good for 1000amps.... does that agree with your calculations?

Probably when I built it. That has been about 1.5 years ago. I know it is way oversized, I like things on the heavy side. Cabinet build is in my signature below.
I assume the red cable is from a battery and you intend to hook up your load to the other end of the class T fuse?
You have the current backwards.

4/0 Red cable goes to battery bank ABB shunt trip breaker controlled the Batrium BMS. From ABB breaker the cables go to a Victron Lynx and split to the 2 inverters. Another 250A Class T fuse for each inverter feed. Seen here in the wiring trough.

Looks like your bar to the class T is much smaller than the bus bar itself?
That is a 175A Class T fuse that goes from battery to main busbar. I would have used some cable but space was tight and I decided this way I could get everything to fit. I have 4 batteries connected to the main busbar.

Next box I am building is deeper so I might run cable or maybe busbars from batteries and T fuses to main busbar which will be 1/4" x 1 1/4" again.
