is there supposed to be a fuse block on the wire going from to positive to the alt? and could i just disconect the original wire from the pos to the alt?

Yes and its recommended that you keep the original wire also.

I think I read that wrong, are you talking about to your amp or for the Big 3?

If for your amp look for the amount of amps your amp pulls. For your alternator, well how many amps your alt produces.

200-300a depending on the quality of the wire.
