[QUOTE="yacob.naif, post: 5639649, member: 565696"] i'll measure resistance. I'd do both, but i don't want my battery terminals to get overcrowded. The ring terminals i'm using are hard to stack, and i'm already planning on grounding my amps directly to the battery. And in either case, i'm still going to run a ground strap between the engine and the chassis, independant of the ground for the battery, so that should handle all the current from my in-car accessories. That's what i was really looking for. I was stuck in a brainloop, and couldn't decide if my original plan made any sense or not. I couldn't remember if the circuit terminated at the battery, or back at the alternator. Should've trusted my gut. Thanks a lot. [/QUOTE]
