Useless thread is useless.

Some people give me a headache, thanks anyways.

How much power do you plan on running?

Is it bare metal (no paint) on all the ground connections?

And yes a ground runn from back batt to front would help. May be overkill depending on what you're trying to do.

Thanks anyways

Your list at the top doesn't have front batt- to back batt neg-. my bad.

A red top and a small battery in the back wont be enough for 6kw RMS.

Thanks anyways

^^^that. But as far as wiring goes for 6k you want at least another power and ground run. 3+ & 3- if you're going to use the Knu CCA wire. (seeing that it is not OFC, I believe the KCA wire is tinned too) I kinda regret not going the route of welding cable but I believe its just as good and cheaper from what I've seen. Just less flexible.

Edit.. ya ninja'd me lol

Your original post is so frustrating. I keep trying to help you out and you keep being a smartass.

You asked if it was enough grounds when we originally dont know what you're trying to do with it.

All we know is that you're running a bunch of wires from the back to the front.

from bunch of (soon to be) stock alternators....well what are your stock alts rated at? 50 amps, 100 amps?

All this 1/0 is bullshit coming from stock alts that probably only put out 80 amps and 4 gauge would suffice.

but whatever, you want to run some wire for 6kw?

take 600 and divide it by whatever amperage a single 1/0 wire can handle from the distance of the alt to the batteries. done. since you want to do overkill add another wire or so on top of it.

Thanks anyways gentlemen. I'll stick with my original plan, overkill or not it will be there when I need it and I would rather not have to rip the interior apart time and time again just to run wiring.
