[QUOTE="sbelew, post: 7562100, member: 626394"] Getting ready to do the Big 3 upgrade and a new battery on my '98 Cavalier. I'm going to use the Knukonceptz 1/0 Kolossus Fleks Cable and rings. I was considering running the battery to chassis ground to the left strut tower, and the engine to chassis ground from the A/C bracket to the right strut tower. But it seems I read somewhere that it is not recommended to have multiple grounding points? Is this true? and if so, should I run both the ground wires to the same strut tower? If it matters, the alternator seems to be a 105 amp, currently looks to be 8 or 10 gauge wire connected to the alternator. I have a JBL GTO 5355 5 channel amp, running 4 speakers at 4 ohms and 2 8" subs at 2 ohms. It is wired with 4 gauge power and ground wires. According to the amp ratings, I have about 580 watts of power. [/QUOTE]
