[QUOTE="goose5741, post: 5935356, member: 566244"] Ok, gonna be running a 3kwrms system, one battery in the trunk, 200 amp alt. So my plan is to use my 2 awg that is my power wire right now to do the big 3 with. And then just have a run of 1/0 going back to the battery in the trunk for power, fused of course. The 2awg should be fine for the big 3 right? None of those have to be that long so I figured it should be NBD. The other thing I am wondering is if it would be worth it to do a run from the battery in the trunks ground to my under the hood batteries ground. That helps eliminate some voltage drop right? Is it worth it? And would it be ill-advised to do the ground run with 2 awg instead of 1/0? (if i also still ground it to the chasis too). [/QUOTE]
