Bout To Do The Big Three But Can I Ground Here?


Recommended Posts

Thanks a lot guys....i finally got my Big Three done. I just wanna show you guys how it turned out....check it out and let me know if there is anything wrong that you see. The only thing i need to do now is buy some protective sleeve for the wires so that they don't get so hot cuz they are right above the exaust manifold and radiator (but none of the wires are touching hot metal).

Also i have another question, what is the significance of add/replacing the power and ground that goes to the fuse box?

would this help also with sound system?

here are some pics of what i ended up doing as far as the big three....thanks to everybody for the help, especially Derrick824 for finding me a good engine block grounding spot.

I went at work to this this job because i don't have the right tools.

you are right.....batt (+pos) goin to alt; batt (-neg) goin to chassis juz about six inches to the right of the batt, the wire u see goin down kinda by the radioto ran is actually hooked to the engine block. It is pretty much the same where the alt is hooked up to only on the opposite side. so that's the third wire of the big three, batt (-neg) to that ground on the engine. Is this big three done right?

any good tips on what and where to buy as tubing for the wires for added protection? something that would help protect from excessive heat.

haha true that bro...going to a audio shop will cost u a s*** load of money just for doin something easy and simple..but CAPS dont really work...i dont trust caps...i rather go with a BIG ALT or adding more battery's...

Yeah....may be in the future i will add batts and maybe even bigger alt. I've ask Ohio, excessiveamp,....and they said they currently don't have alt for my car cuz mine uses the "hairpin stator" alt. but my current stock alt is a 110amp or even a 130 amp so it's not too bad......yet.

My next stop is new batt under the hood. Are stinger batts are good, SP1000 to be exact? i've looked at kinetik HC1400 but it looks too tall for my car. what do u guys recommend for a good batt for audio but also good for starting the car?

by they way, if u haven't seen my set-up yet..here is what i got: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=25463
