Um, just stick to what you have I guess. Or do both. Lol batteries are just supposed to be + to -.

I never understood how people can't figure out how to wire multiple batteries. Positive to positive, negative to negative. It's... not hard.

you don't have to ground loop. Just find a nice spot on the car frame to ground

Do both. And use bus bars.

I meant your back battery grounds don't need to be grounded at the front batt.

Maybe they are not sure. I know i would not want to mess up wiring a battery in my car. Never hurts to ask.
