[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8222071, member: 591582"] But really all you need in wire from the front is just how big your alt is. My alt is 300 amps, which is pushing it for 1 run of 0 gauge, especially with a lot of it hot under the hood, which really increases resistance. So I did 2 runs. All my alt power will make it back with decently low resistance. I also have 4/0 for the big 2, alt + and -. Since mine is closed, no amps are grounded to frame, they are grounded to the battery via wire. So that's why I only have the big 2 instead of big 3 in 4/0. The other run from frame to battery - is in 0 gauge. [/QUOTE]
