I was wondering if anyone can confirm this drawing for a battery relocation.... I'm a little confused about it. Thanks.




Basically, it goes pos from the battery, to the distributor block, 2 wires from that ground and 2 go to the fuse + starter... and then the battery grounds in the back? I dont know, Im fairly confused right now and I suck at electrical stuff, any clarification would be appreciated.

 

Try searching. And WTF, why would you need grounds off of the distrib. block?

SEARCH. I did it. So Can You.

 

Cool, good answer, you obviously have enough time to post an answer, but can't just tell me what I need to do. Neat, gj.

usually i would say search as well but i gotta agree with u here, he shoulda at least told u in addition to the scolding

 

Well I thought I knew what I was doing until my brother told me otherwise and just thoroughly confused the crap outta me... So the battery is in the trunk, positive wire runs up to the distribution block, which then goes to the starter and fusebox... in the trunk, the battery grounds out to the frame... What about the stock grounds in the engine compartment, what do I do with those? Thats my dilemma, I dont know what to do with the stock grounds that are on the motor and the frame... do I run another 20foot wire to ground the engine? Thanks...

 

Just ground the wires from the motor to the chassi. You will also want to fuse the main power wire in the engine bay for the starter and alt. As well as one in the rear, just in case it were to short out.

Leave them. Otherwise, your car won't start due to bad ground.

 

Sorry to sound like an idiot, but how do I leave them grounded if I'm only running a positive cable up to the front...?

 

I ran both my positive and negative cables to the front of the car for my relocation... grounded it to the original locations and doubles up the motor/ chassis grounds.

works perfect

Yeah you can do that too. Either way, it works.
