[QUOTE="ejschultz, post: 7322340, member: 603800"] My buddy's GTO is like that. I'm thinking we're going to have to replace all the wiring in there to do it right. You might have to do the same. I'm doing it in my car. Most people say when you do the big 3 to just run it along with your factory wiring. If you do it right, you don't need your factory wiring anymore. Essentially, when you do the big 3 and leave your factory wiring in, it's not even used. Current will take the path with the least resistance which will be the larger gauge wiring. As long as you trust your terminations, you're good to pull the factory wiring and only use the aftermarket wiring for your car's charging system. That'll let you use whatever battery terminals you want to use. [/QUOTE]
