[QUOTE="sherwood71, post: 8538896, member: 670043"] That amp kit will work. Use the inline fuse within 18 inches of the battery then run the wire to the fused distribution block in the back. Then you can run 4 or 8 gauge wire, out of distribution block, to your amps. There should be no problems with under hood heat, just keep all your wires up and away from any moving parts and your exhaust manifolds.

A rock will work to crimp wires but you have to watch out for your fingers. lol [URL="https://www.amazon.com/PENSON-CAYQK007010-Hydraulic-Terminal-Crimping/dp/B0114QC3OY/ref=sr_1_2?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1483098658&sr=1-2&keywords=hydraulic+crimpers"]https://www.amazon.com/PENSON-CAYQK007010-Hydraulic-Terminal-Crimping/dp/B0114QC3OY/ref=sr_1_2?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1483098658&sr=1-2&keywords=hydraulic+crimpers[/URL] [URL="https://www.amazon.com/TEMCo-Hammer-Crimper-Tool-Warranty/dp/B00E1UUVT0/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1483098736&sr=1-1&keywords=hammer+crimpers"]https://www.amazon.com/TEMCo-Hammer-Crimper-Tool-Warranty/dp/B00E1UUVT0/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1483098736&sr=1-1&keywords=hammer+crimpers[/URL] Couple different examples of wire crimpers.
