so if my alt puts out round 70 amps then i should only fuse it with about a 100amp fuse? even if im using 1/0 for the upgrade?

incorrect, fuse to the wire. If using 0g fuse to 250 or 300 amp

Lol unless you've got a 300+ amp alt you wouldn't be burning anything but fuses

Yeah really haha. You won't mess up anything but fuses if you use a fuse too small
