how are you guys hooking up your big three wires? did you use the second bolt on the right in this pic for the pos to alt wire?



would that still utilize this 120a fuse right next to it?



and how did you run that pos to alt wire, did you cut a new hole through the metal? or cut another hole in that grommet? thanks

 

What size wire are you using ? Cause I would use the grommet thats shape like a "D" and drill a hole through that. Remember to follow the alternator wire and use wire loom and zip ties to make the installtion looks cleaner. Also attach your wires to the copper side, going the different direction.

 

i was planning on either 2ga or 0ga. what do you mean by copper side? i think the copper you see in the pics is actually the connector connected to the wire

 

Yeah thats what I mean.

 

Is it safe to use that 2nd stud for a power wire for an amp? Looks like that stud is hooked up to the 120A fuse. Will this cause any problems?

 

that was one of my original questions, is that second stud hooked up to that fuse?

 

Hook up a voltmeter and see if you get battery voltage at that stud. Then you can use it.

 

if it were me, id use the post on top of the battery for your amp powerwire cause you will likely have a different size fuse that you will want to use. the second stud would be better for the big3 upgrade as it will already be fused, assuming that second bolt flows through that fuse

 

anyone have any pics of their big 3? i looked at the batt to alt and its a pretty decent size wire already. and where are you guys doing the block to chasis?

 

Just look at my engine detail you see the grounds upgrade in the front.

 

engine detail?

 

You can find it under the detail DIY section.

 

anyone ground the alternator? any pics how u did it with wire not goin throu the belts?
