[QUOTE="dafobbishon3, post: 6356750, member: 605002"] well i hooked up my big 3, but i couldnt get the alt pos to the pos of the battery, it was just such a ***** to get to. so i tried taking it to my buddies shop, and he said that "it would be pointless to hook up a alt pos to the pos of the batt" so he said i shouldn't even do it. THEN he claims i should get a cap, and if i have a cap, i wouldn't need a rear batt. i thought to myself "no.". cap is a no no. for sure. so i don't know what to do then i took it to my local shop @ bico stereo. they said i should be good with the rear batt that i have. if anything comes to worse, just get the HO alt from rob. i'll post up pics of the 2/3 of the big 3 done. i did the neg bat to the chassis and the engine block to the neg of my batt, and that's all :\ [IMG]http://i35.tinypic.com/dxe3w6.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i33.tinypic.com/2ed77ys.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i34.tinypic.com/33fgnyf.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i35.tinypic.com/amf4n7.jpg[/IMG] tell me what i should do. should i get the cap? i know i shouldn't.. i'll get flamed for asking this question, but my friend said cap is the best way to go i didn't believe him. i'm thinking to just go with what i have now, and if i have insane voltage drops under 12, then i'll go with the ho alt. this is really pissing me off!!! all these different stories from many people![IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif[/IMG]:verymad:[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif[/IMG]:furious: [/QUOTE]
