Looked like factory ground to engine block was already 4 gauge... think that's gonna do it?

Or shall I piggy back engine block to neg battery?

System already sounds way better.

doing big 3 in 4ga defeats what your trying to do in in my opinion, since cars already have 4ga ran. but adding thoughs extra run's cant hurt

Not all cars have 4 gauge though. Also, it depends more on what the goals are for that electrical. In some cases, 4 gauge is just fine. In other cases it falls short.

It’s so easy and inexpensive to do it up nice that I always go for more than I actually need. I do 0 from alt to battery

0 from alt case to ground

0 from engine to ground

0 from battery to frame and engine and body

When I do cars for other people I do it this way also. Its just too easy and I can rest assured that there will be no problems.

unless your lights are dimming i wouldn't worry about doing the big 3 at your level yet. and if they are dimming i'd move to a 4ga wiring kit before doing the big 3.
