What car? Did the Big 3? How large are the factory grounds?

14 ram. Didn’t do the big 3. Not sure how large the factory grounds are. Seem pretty thick tho. I grounded the amp right to the same post on the negative terminal where the battery ground runs to the chassis

RCA's touching any metal?

They’re underneath the carpet so they’re touching the sheet metal from the floor. But the sheet metal is painted. That could be it. But I don’t see a possible way I could run the rcas without it coming into contact with metal at some point

It’s weird. Ever since I hooked it to the battery I only get a slight alt whine when I first start it up. After a minute or 2 of running it’s almost completely gone

Hurtin' feelings errrday.
If it were me, I'd leave it to the battery for the connection. Save yourself the hassle of trying to troubleshoot something can be frustrating and take days to figure it out.
