very basic wiring question
very basic wiring question Question about 02 F-body. Battery in trunk and factory battery cables are good as lost.
Finally down to fluids and battery for the catfish's revival.
Grounding is complete at battery to frame, frame to motor, and harness grounds.
Problem is with my positive side. How does current ENTER the harness to power the car?
Where all does the + battery terminal connect directly? One fat cable from + terminal to starter post, check. One cable from + terminal to rear ALTERNATOR post? Another to distribution block post?
If I got that right, can any of those connections share the same cable? Using overkill 0 awg so it'll flow serious current. Should it work if I run a single 0 awg from battery + terminal, along chassis to engine bay, split the cable to 3 parallel cables: 1 to starter, 1 to ALT post, 1 to distribution post?

Gonna try using the starter post as a branch point. So battery wiring will be...
Ground terminal -> chassis ground
Positive terminal -> starter post
Starter post -> alternator post
Starter post -> fuse box
Will that work? Got 2 wiring schematics for this section and they show different layouts
