I'm going to either go with 1 yellow top optima
or with 2 deep cycle extreme batteries from walmart. One in the stock place and one in the back left hand side of my car, (any opinions on venting?)

I'm not completly sure yet.

If I got the 2 from walmart I'd have to wire them in parallel correct?
that would be taking both of the and connecting the + terminals together and then combinding them into one and taking that and
wire and feeding it into my distribution system.

if I had this battery setup in the back would I want to ground this battery back at the 1st battery or just run it to the floor of my trunk.?

and I would my 100 amp Phoenix gold circuit breaker and my amp's fuses would be enough protection.

My installer at home told me that a fuse is a voltage drop as well as everything else in your electrial system (well almost anyway)
he said just use the circuit breaker and get
a distribution block with no fuses.. for both the + and -.

also is anyone here in Erie Pa??

OK I'm going with 1 optima yellow top.
I'm getting my alt. rebuild to the largest size I can.
I'm going to run my ground to a distributio block and run it to the frame.

and I'm not using any fuses in the rear of my car execpt in the amps themselvers..
I was told it was a voltage drop by some installer and he said I was better off forgetting about it.
I only have a PPI A404 and A600.2
and my car has something like 105 amp stock alt...
