I'm looking to do this to my f150 but my trucks battery and fuse box all looks scary, I new here and I don't wanna do something that'll hurt the electrical system, anybody ever done this to a 99 f150 4.2? Any help will be appreciated.

So on my car I have a + from the alt to the bat. (Which will be piggybacked) plus one going to the fuse box. Then two negative wires, one from bat neg to engine and one from bat neg to chassis. There is no stock wire going from engine to chassis so should I put one in?

Yes, for sure, just as first post has described. Over size wire you are installing.

Not completely. It just optimizes the current charging capabilities. It can never hurt to do it.

You can notice headlight dimming with 0.1v of drop.
