AMI CUSTOMS Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 No that is the group class of the battery. Group 31 are 70-80 lbs each and just have enough reserve for what you are wanting to run.

White Lightning Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) our vehicles have actuall frames, and you should ground to the body of the vehicle too ... I do not have any grounds that go from my front battery(s) to my rear battery bank ... I use my frame as the ground. No ground wire on my truck is longer than 24 inches ... and most of those are under 18 inches long ...

AMI CUSTOMS Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 Run a (2) ground wires from front to back, that is best for your car IMO.
