well my intention wasn't that in the biggining. i already have a 0 gague going from the alt to the batt so i figured i split that so one will go to the back.

now that i think about it, would that split the current. so instead of full current going from alt to the front batt i would only get half current. damn this is so confusing.

id make a run fromthe alt to the fisrt bat and another run from the alt to the back then a run connecting each battery and you definatly should run a 1/0 ground from each battery too

marc that is how my batteries are connected right now. i want to do 2 runs so i was just gonna disconnect the - and put it on +. then i would just ground both batteries to the chasis.

i guess i need more batteries period.
