Battery RELO/Killswitch/wire gauge suggestions
Battery RELO/Killswitch/wire gauge suggestions Trying to figure out why everybody seems to be running the Flaming River killswitch and not the taylor one. Besides the price, whats the difference between the 2?
Will 2 gauge wire be plenty or should I go with a 0 gauge?
What do you guys use to connect the factory power wire from the front of the car, that used to be connected to the +of the battery, to the wire that you now have to run from the back to this point? Would this terminal block work?

I really like the way that looks. I hate the look of a t handle sticking out the back of the car.
Where did you get that switch at?
**edit** just found the switch $25 is cheap for that

I went with the flaming river push/pull, and we ran 0 guage. Hooked the O guage up to a bolukead connector @ the hvac delete plate, which gave me a nice power lug to use for internal power needs, then ran on the engine bay side a 0 guage wire that w soldered/crimped and heat shrunk together with the factory battery connections.
There's a 4 guage wire running from the ALT back to the battery + terminal, directly to the battery (I need to put a 200 amp fuse in that wire) so when the push/pull is used, the power from the alt only gets to the battery.
Hope this helps.
