fused power distribution block?

[Ded]

hey guys im new here and am in the process of getting a system built however i have a question. I will be doing the big 3 on my car with 0 gauge wire and be running the wire to my amps. i will be running 2 amps, 1 mono and a 4 channel for my components. i was wondering if i used a power distribution block to run power to both amps if i should get a fused one or a non fused one because it will most likely be 0 gauge power being sent to 4 or 2 gauge wire through the block to the amps. i will be fusing the 0 gauge to the back about 10 inches from battery and the battery to alternator as well.

NVX XFDBU2 Fused Distribution Block 0/1 Ga Input + 4/8 Ga Outputs

this is the fused block i was thinking about getting. also if i am right about using a fused block what size fuse would i use with a 1400rms at 2 ohms mono block amp for my subs and 75rms x 4 for my 4 channel? both amps cea-2006 compliant if that matters?

That will be fine. Use a 150 amp and 60amp fuses

use a 150 amp and 60 amp fuses? so 150 amp fuses up front at battery and alternator, and 60 amp fuses on the power distributor in back?

maybe an 80a for the monoblock. then 60 for the other amp

150 for monoblock and 60 for 4 ch. I'd use 250a anl fuses at the batteries.
