andym85 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 that is the fuse circled and leave that alone along with all of your stock wiring....u are simply adding wiring and fuses..not replacing the factory wiring Quote i likes me some audio stuff...

andym85 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) leave the stock wiring....u are simply adding wire add a positive run from the battery to the alt...fused add a ground run from the battery to the engine block (i attached it to the bolt holding my alt in) add a ground from your battery to the frame Edited October 18, 2009 by andym85 Quote i likes me some audio stuff...

andym85 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 i would highly recommned a fuse....just because its safer u fuse based on the size of wire....for 1/0 gauge the biggest u can go is 325 amps....150 will probably work...if it were me i would use something bigger....like 250amps+ Quote i likes me some audio stuff...
Demo402 Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) So its all good not to have a fuse in, when i have money ill get one and install it. Thanks for help!!
