Run 2 more 1/0 from battery's negative terminals to a ground distro... The same thing you did for the B+

 

[Mr.Coogi]

i thought the ground had to be shortest possible length?

The reason for wanting a short ground is in most systems, the car's body/frame will have less resistance than the wire you are using.

In your case, two runs of 1/0 will have less resistance than the body of your car.

One last question, does the ground have to be fused like the power would be?
