I would definitely run two runs of 1/0 to the back battery. keep that voltage up. it'll get you more power from your amp, and help it run cooler and more efficient

What about the run from the alt. to the battery? Do you only need 1 run of 1/0 to the battery in the front if you are going to run multiple runs of wire to the back?

You could probably get away with a single 1/0run. doing a second run wouldn't hurt, and doesn't cost much. Just make sure you are grounding the alternator to the chassis, and upgrading the battery ground as well.

If you are going to do multiple runs from front to back should you do multiple from alt. to battery?
