fyi i did search on the forums and read many threads where it was suggested to wire the batteries different ways. as i previously stated i wanted to clarify those conflicting opinions.

ok cool. i have a better understanding of how grounding works now. thanks so much guys for your help and advice.

so just ground my amps directly to the rear battery? i always thought you should ground amps to the chassis or frame because that would require the shortest length of ground wire.

Thanks for the reply. The only thing I have grounded in the rear is my amps and it.s a good ground so I should be ok with just the negative run from the front battery.

I'm going to be installing a second battery this weekend and i just wanted to clarify some conflicting opinions or facts i have read here on the forums about wiring two batteries together. Is it absolutely necessary to add a ground wire to the rear chassis from the rear battery if the two batteries are wired parallel? Some threads suggested to add another ground from the second battery to the rear chassis to minimize voltage drop while others have said it isn't necessary. I have a 2000 Honda Accord and I have an Optima Yellow Top upfront and will be adding another in my trunk where the spare tire is. I have a T1500-1bdcp and i just ordered a T400-4 powered by a MechMan 220a with big 3 upgrade done in 1/0ga. Any help or advice is appreciated. Thanks.

when i first heard about the bounty scandal, i knew goodell would come down hard on anyone who was involved with it. hopefully players and coaches throughout the league will take note and not repeat this for the benefit of other player's health and safety.

lol what a dumb ass

damn that was crazy.

just routinely inspect your vehicle inside and out for loose or missing parts, especially screws. but i don't think you should have too much to worry about with your new set-up.

i would love for tebow to stay and learn a great deal under manning but tebow wouldn't be able to come in if manning got hurt or something like that and be effective what so ever with our new offense. it wouldn't be fair to tebow or to the broncos. Thats true but at the same time they could work with tebow and im sure he could handle the new offence if he really had to the boy is incrediable there's no doubt his work ethic is legendary and his will to win is incredible. but the inability to consistently throw the football or having the biggest heart does not always produce wins. i wish tebow nothing but the best going forward.

i feel the same way. i think indy should have never let him go. i'm sure they could of re-worked his contract to better suit both parties. it's a shame because he gave that franchise everything he had for 14 years. he deserved better from them. but i guess that's how business works sometimes.
