I cant find the forum anywhere but i think it was fbm that did this in red 2 guage wire

i want to do this because i just installed a high output 250amp db electrical alternator. Plus i have a very high output audio system pushing over 4000 watt and think doin this will npot only look good with my red powercoated vavue covers but power everything a little smoother

The kit would include the + & - battery cables, choice of terminals, major ground cables and the cable from the alternator to the power distribution box.

He posted the brand and type, DB electrical 250 amp. Check out their website, it is what most of us run for high output alternators

That's just for the alternator. You need to do the rest onf the cables also or your not going to get the full benefit.

I think FBM has posted his big 3 upgrade a few times, you might want to message him and ask. I thought I subscribed to it but I cant find it for some reason?

I knew it was on here somewhere.
The only thing different he did was ground the block to the chassis instead of the battery?
I don't think it matters though :p
